Fake Or National Lottery

Is This real or a Fake?

I had an email message purporting to be from the National Lottery.
Titled: Last Chance - Exclusive Lotto Subscription Offer, then very convincing stuff about cash back if you take out a 3 month subscription!
Very convincingly laid out and with my details but it looks fake to me.
Does any member know about this?

I assume this was also you asking this here. Some answers are included.

There is no need to risk using a link in the email. Ignore it and look on the official Lottery Site if you are interested in finding this deal

Yes, I thought I might get more answers in the evening.

Could 'cash back ' be seen as an inducement to gamble?

[Old_Geezer]

Surely any advertising or publicity of gambling could be.
Offers also.

I have just signed in to my on line account and gone on 'live chat' where Natalie informed me that whilst the offer was genuine, it expired at 2300 last night. Whilst i understand your doubt about the email#'s authenticity, howard, I think that the fact the email carried certain details (username for instance) would mark it as genuine. If in doubt in future, do as i did and go to 'live chat'.
