Lying Lottery Letters

The NTS Scams team have notified an influx of more fake lottery mail being circulated to Scam Marshals. These letters are often under the name ‘International FIFA World Online Lottery’ stating to be from the ‘International Postcode Lottery Commission’. 

The letters are often very colourful to try and drawer your attention once they have been opened. They include a foreign address at the top of the page, as well as a British Address in the letter's contents.

These letters ask their victims to call a telephone number and ask for a small payment to ‘receive your winnings’. This is a scam, a lottery winner will never have to pay to receive their money, in any circumstances. Please do not ring the number on the letter.
