    Did you buy a ticket?

    Thought not

    Fair bet that you will need to "facilitate" the release of the dosh by giving them some cash up front usually starts with a couple of grand, then they ask for more

    There was a case higlighted in Which last month of a GP from Rotherham who wished to remain anonymous (cant think why?) who "won" the Euro millions lottery and kept handing over dosh until he got to £93,000 and then the penny finally dropped

    What details do they want?

    Let me guess...........name, address, date of birth, job etc?

    At first you don't think there is anything to lose but what they are asking for is probably enough for identity theft.
