It's BS. If you didn't enter a contest I doubt you won it.

More than likely, this is an attempt at phishing, a way that identity theives can get your information. Do not fall for any of these scams. Most of them are. So, if you get an E-mail, or regular mail, from a contest saying that you already won, chances are that you did not.

Yahoo also told me I won a laptop, car, house, and a vacation
to Singapore of course you have to turn over your social security number, full name and address, date you were born.
If that doesn't open your eyes try picturing yourself with a $50,000 credit card bill. They will even stuff their pockets more by selling whatever info. you give them! Do yourself a favor and forget it!

Those 'prize' usually are handed out when you buy something or subscribe to some service.
You havn't seen other teaser emails like that before?
