This is the least original lottery scam that I have seen in a long time.
UK lottery, with hotmail multiple addresses, where the phone number is to a UK mobile phone and not any landline, the email address that has nothing to do with the name of the person that 'sent' this email, ...
and why is it that they have your email address magically but they just don't bother to magically have also your phone number?

If it was from UNITED KINGDOM NATIONAL LOTTERY, don't you think that it would be YOUR responsibility to find out you have won something, secondly that they would use the official email address and not their hotmail .. and that they might know your name? These are getting kind of repetitive...
