Your email address ([email protected]) attached to ticket number: ***************** with Serial number: ******** was selected which automatically makes you one of our lucky winners.



Your funds have been approved for release and we will begin the process of remittance of your prize money to you immediately you select a mode of payment from the options stipulated below:



1. You can come over to the UK National Lottery Office here in the England and pick up your winnings in cash. Be informed that you will have to make yourself available within two weeks or your funds will be reused in upcoming draws.



2. We can have your prize money wired into your private bank account from our official participating bank to any account of your choice.



3. If all the above option is inconvenient for you, kindly get back to us so that we can make arrangements for you to receive your winning cheque, certificate and other vital documents through a secured and efficient courier service.



NOTE: FOR OPTIONS 2 & 3 ALL ACCRUING CHARGES ARE DIRECTLY BEARABLE BY THE WINNER AND CANNOT BE DEDUCTED FROM YOUR WINNINGS BECAUSE YOUR CHEQUE IS PROTECTED BY A HARDCOVER INSURANCE POLICY WHICH MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR ANYONE TO MAKE ANY DEDUCTION OF WHATSOEVER BEFORE IT IS REMITTED TO YOU.

ATTN: Karen Purvis,


Good day to you. In regards to your last mail to us, We have sent your cheque and other vital documents relating to your winnings to our affiliate courier company, Greyhound Express Couriers.



It is important to note that services rendered by this courier company are to be paid for by you and not the Lottery Board. Greyhound Express Couriers does operate on Pay before delivery (P.B.D) service to winners of the UK National Lottery thus they shall not commence delivery until they are paid.



They charge between 441 Pound Sterling to 805 Pound Sterling for the shipping of the UK National Lottery’ winnings. It all depends on your location and how fast you want it to be

delivered. Below are the options.



Courier Express...£805(24 hrs delivery)

Courier Regular...£599 (3-4 days delivery)

Courier Economy..£441 (6-7 days delivery)



They offer pay before delivery service ( PBD) for winners of the UK National Lottery winners. This is a result of the risk involved in delivering a parcel that contains a cheque of such a high value of money written on it.



Note that this amount cannot be deducted from your winnings because of the hard cover insurance that covered it.



See below the contact information of the administrative officer. You are advised to act accordingly.


Mr. Blake Lewis
Administrative Officer
Tel: +44 703 196 9670
