No, it's a scam.
No, it is not.
The Australian Lottery Awards Office is often associated with scams, as legitimate lottery organizations do not typically notify winners via email or phone calls. If you receive a communication claiming you’ve won a lottery you didn't enter, it's likely a fraudulent attempt. Always verify any lottery claims through official channels, and be cautious of providing personal information or making payments.
Nope, someone is trying to scam you. Trust me, I am Australian and know about lotteries. Sorry.
There is a scam being operated that makes mention of the Australian lottery. There is no such thing, as lottery's in Australia are run by the states
Iwould say yes-its a scam. I never entered an Australian lottery?!
The Cash and Cars lottery is actually a legitimate lottery drawing that most people can enter. In fact, the proceeds go toward cancer research and other related causes.
If you are referring to the lottery then no, it is not sanctioned by the government.
There is no legitimate lottery that asks you to pay a fee in advance for anything. Not taxes, not delivery, not processing, not administrative costs, NOTHING.
Yes there is a UK National Lottery and this is regulated by the British government through The National Lottery Commission and is contracted out by tender every few years. The company currently running the lottery for the UK Government is the Camelot Group plc. The lottery may be real, but if you receive an email saying you must send money somewhere to collect your winnings, that is a scam. Especially when you have not bought any tickets.
Lottery winnings are typically collected at the state lottery office or through a designated lottery retailer.
Very suspicious, as entry into the National Lottery is anonymous. If you have registered to play the lottery online, then the email may be legitimate. However, I would advise you to check the source IP address, in the email's header, just to be certain.
You can claim your lottery winnings at the official lottery office or designated claim center specified by the lottery organization.
