Nope. I also receive such emails frequently. Do not provide the sender with any details whatsoever. Simply delete the email, or better still, reply rudely.

No it is a scam. If you respond they wil send you very believable information to claim your prize but they will point out that you have to pay the shipping since moneys cannot be deducted from the prize. That shipping cost is fairly high and if you pay it you'll never hear from them again.

This is spam do not open it mark as spam immediately. I had the same problem and didn't open it but phoned the lottery to find out why they would be emailing me with this sort of thing and they said they were inundated with these questions and they are most definitely SPAM. Hope this helps.
