My job is telling Brits they’ve won £1,000s in lotto but so many people NEVER get the cash because of ridiculous mistake

A MUM whose job is telling Brits they've won thousands of pounds in the lottery says many people never get the cash because of a ridiculous mistake.

Carly Troullis, 37, from Thurrock in Essex, phones up new winners for the Health Lottery.

But Carly said many winners never get the cash - because they think she is a scammer.

The mum-of-one told : "People feel that they’re being scammed all the time now.

"You do get people who swear and put the phone down on you."

Carly proves she really is the bearer of good news by reading out the numbers the winner has matched and telling them to check their ticket.

She then waits around half an hour before calling again to confirm wins of up to half a million pounds.

In one example of dishing out the good news, Carly told how the husband of a woman with multiple disabilities did not believe her as she revealed they had scooped a £250,000 jackpot.

Carly said: "Her husband was the one I spoke to… he thought it wasn’t real.

"I promised him it was and that I’d call him back after 30 minutes. He called me back first and was like, ‘Oh my god, it’s true'."

Another winner was convinced Carly was a scammer until she took him to the glitzy Savoy Hotel in London.

She said: "He didn’t believe it until I met him in the Savoy Hotel a week later.

"Before meeting me Andrew’s wife was, like, these are really generous fraudsters if it is fraud."

Carly told how she plotted with the husband of one winner to pretend she was from the benefits office - before presenting the stunned woman with a cheque for £250,000.

A mum who thought she had been scammed after she won £60,000 in the lottery has revealed the first thing she did after scooping the prize.
