No one will give away lottery for free! did u apply for it?? Or are you just plain superbly lucky?
Wake up mate, its a fake hoax. They would have give you a link for you to click and complete formalities, dont click it!! Cause if you do, it wil transmit your IP address and others would be able to access your personal details.

it is a hoax...... I responded to one of them once and they said I won this dough........ and they will send it to me when I forward them $210 for a processing fee.
needless to say I didnt bother and I didnt get paid either
