Did you buy a lottery ticket?
If not this is a scam. I get about five per day.
Just delete it and ignore it..

I am quite fed up of receiving such mails on a regular basis. I just can't believe my luck that I can win prizes in different lotteries in a span of say one month, without even playing it. Friend, just ignore it, these are crooks looking to fool gullible people. After you have given the details, they will ask you to send money to meet the legal and bank charges for money transfer.
The other mails which comes is that somebody's dad killed in air crash & left behind huge wealth lying with some bank in South Africa....just ignore such mails

Come on! It's a scam. I got one too and I didn't even have a computer when they told me I was picked. Watch for the one where the guy says his parents and sister were killed and his family's money was taken and in order to get it back he needs help Then you have to go over there to help him get his money and you'll even get to count it!

It is a scam!
If you have truly won, they would need you to collect it in person and show proof of identification.
They do not need your address!

It is a scam. Once you give them your information, they will withdraw all your money. Do not do it.
