Wow, my fears are allayed, NO TICKETS were sold, only email addresses were used to pick da weiners. Ah, yes, using TOPAZ machine, I see. Why never SAPPHIRE? Not to mention Merlin, Arthur, Galahad, Vyvyan, Lancelot, Garnet, Opal, Amethyst, Moonstone, Pearl. And then there is poor, retired, Guinevere...

By the by, the UK National Lottery has a page about email scams...
