What's the 'El Gordo lotto scam'? - sounds like some new tax Labour are adding to the cost of lottery tickets.

I received a letter from the Spainish Lotto La Primitiva claiming I had won E750,000. I will be sending it to Watchdog.

I got as similar letter a couple of years ago which I sent to Watchdog and 2 weeks later they did an article on it with people who fell for it.

I thought El Gordo (The Fat One) was the official Spanish lottery?

I wouldn't bother this isn't exactly new there's even a section on the office of fair trading's web page on it.

They have "a don't mail it to us " bit with the address of the Spanish Lottery operator if you feel really keen

Yes. El Gordo is the Spanish National lottery and it is very respectable, and will have nothing todo with scams. They would never email anyone.
