D&D European Servies LTD???? help

Just had a call from these from a 020 london number.
Said i had been drawn to recieve a euromillions and lotto ticket allocation of something like 800+ a month for 3 months for £44 a month, she wanted my sort code and account number, she has given me their details, company name, her name, email address and phone number but i didnt give my bank details as i didn't trust that it wasnt a scam anyone else had this? guaranteeing me 3 wins a week?
And chance to win i pad, £1000 or something else
And a Online voucher for 30% back on any thing you buy online, sounded fishy so put phone down.

    you did the right thing putting the phone down.
  • They're saying you've "been drawn" to pay them money? Smells of scam.

    Scam, even if are buying tickets - I have seen "paid for" lotto syndicates where less than 10p out of each £1.50 you pay them goes on tickets.
    It is easy to get 3 wins per week (with Thunderball 14 tickets ensure at least a £3 return, with Euromillions 20ish get you a match 2 etc) but your share of the wins would be pennies not £s.

    Found one of their websites and it looks like each syndicate has 100 members paying £44 a month = £4,400 in, around £1800 going on tickets and £2600 per syndicate going on "expenses" each month.
  • Cheers guys I thought it may have been always got to trust your instincts eh. Just as iam new to this was wondering if I had thrown away a great chance but as soon as they said to pay £44 a month I thought something wasnt right
