I've won the lottery! Uh, no, it's a scam

Email addresses don't win lotteries. While there's indeed a National Lottery in the UK -- which this email claims to come from -- this email is a fraud. That's why the return address is to a "me.com" account, not to a national-lottery.co.uk address.

This is a fake. Don't reply, don't respond, to messages like this.
