to think this is probably a scam?

Text message sent to my mobile as follows:

'Attention!!! Your Mobile Number was selected as a winner of £2,000,000.00 on EURO-MEGA DRAW with Draw No.EU-(number quoted) Email: (link to what looks like an email address) for claims/info'

I haven't entered any lottery or draw btw. Am I right in thinking this is probably a scam? I am a bit loath to click on the link to check the address out....has anyone else received messages like this?

Delete. Obviously a scam.

YANBU to think it's a scam. YABU to even ask the question Don't click!

No, looks absolutely legit

If you wanna PM me your credit card details I can check though?

Only probably a scam?

Absolutely basic rule number one of scam awareness: if it sounds too good to be true, it is.

Sub-clause: you can never have won a lottery you have not entered.

Don't listen to this crowd of miseries, OP.

Go on, open it. What's the worst that could happen?

SCAMMMMMMMMY SCAMMMMMY SCAM SCAM!

Delete and block!

Thanks all. Well that is unanimous...no I have no intention of clicking.

I haven't entered any lottery or draw
So how could you possibly have won then?

The old rule is always true: if it sounds too good to be true, it most likely is!

Yes I thought that it was very far fetched that I could win a draw I hadn't entered, I will have to give up my dream of millions then. I thought it might be useful to anyone reading this in case the scam came their way too.

Vodafone have a system where you text scammers numbers to "VSPAM" to get them blocked. I expect other operators have something similar.

@ShirleyPhallus

That’s an obvious scam, even if you had entered any lottery or draws.
