Surely
The real national lottery wouldn't have a yahoo.co.uk email address

yahoo.co.uk?
I have it on authority that Camelot only uses hotmail.com email addresses to alert lucky winners.

Us B3tards must be lucky...

Without buying a single ticket I've personally won the UK, Irish and Spanish Lotteries!

Woo!

I've sent my 'online co-ordinators' all of my identity records and bank account details so they can deposit the cash for me...

Any day now I reckon...

won't be long...

*keeps waiting*

Although I've never won the lottery
I have been lucky enough to have been contacted by several African gents, who've kindly selected me to benefit from unclaimed inheritance.

Nothing seems to have come from it yet, but I know it's only a matter of time before they deposit large sums of money into the bank account I've given them details of, allowing me to grow fantastically rich as a result.

I think
the typo giving rise to the word 'fudiciary' is rather humorous!

....
I work with someone who used to work in a bank. She had an old guy come in to withdraw about £7000 from his savings.

He then told her how he'd won the Lottery. The Kenyan lottery. And he had never entered it. According to him the internet is a wonderful thing and can win you the lottery without you even filling out a ticket... Turns out he'd already sent off £10,000 and not heard back. Poor bugger.
