First you need to be sure that it is not a scam. Next you should try to find out how much you will have to pay taxes on the amount you won.

What is the time limit to contest a will in the UK?

If you wish to contest a will by making a claim under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependents) Act 1975, by arguing that inadequate provision has been made for you in the will, this claim must be brought within 6 months of probate being granted. Alternatively, should you wish to contest a will on the grounds that you believe the will to be invalid you can contest at any time - however, the later you leave it the more likely it is that the assets will have been distributed making claiming anything back more difficult. In fact, most solicitors would advise that it would not be possible to contest a will after 6 months from the grant of probate.
