"Camelot Financial Reconciliation Inc" is a scam. Camelot UK runs the UK National Lottery. The UK National Lottery does not award prizes to people who did not purchase tickets. Furthermore, it does not notify lottery winners by email. If you haven't bought a ticket but received an email that claimed you've won, it's a scam. If you contact the "claims agent" you will be asked for private information which can be abused by these criminals and later you will be asked to send them hundreds or thousands of dollars in charges. The UK National Lottery does not charge winners to collect prizes.
