I have received such notifications from the Yahoo National Lottery, and the British National Lottery. The e-mail usually states I am winner because e-mail was entered in a sweepstakes contest. Are these Legitimate contest or do they just want my personal information?

Don't open or answer any of the lottery emails. Also look out for emails from African countries stating that you are entitled to an inheritance. They are all scams.

You guys answering this question with a straight face??? you serious? dude.. you actually didnt think you would win the UK's nat. lottery by email did you? first of all it's not even legal. wait till you get the email from barrister armouf mateenheimer in africa who is seeking to escape the country but cant do so with 10M dollars so he needs you to deposit his money in your bank and you get to keep a mill for yourself...
Serious advice... Never inquire on any offers you didnt request. no one is randomly helping you, they are attempting to help themselves.

Why would you even ask this question? Did you sign up for the U.K. lottery? If not, then it is a scam.
If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
