Just received e- mail from national lottery,about suspicious activity on players accounts and i need to change password. I have not got an account with them.
Will check with family to see if anyone as an account before deleting.

Got the same email & deleted it straight away.

Looked very official too on first looking.

I never click on any links provided in any of this type of email & if I want to check any of my accounts, I login using my normal method.

i had the same, from play.national-lottery.co.uk
When you look on the website (official one) then it is a legitimate address...

Never go through a link in an email though, close it, open a fresh web browser page and go to the official site, if its a legit massage it will be in your messages queue there

It is in fact genuine and not a scam. However, as Klarzy says, I'd always recommend going to a website via a new browser window rather than clicking a link in an email.
