If you didn't enter the competition it's a pretty good bet you didn't win the prize.
Don't email them, they'll just send you more spam. If you've opened an email from someone you don't know, give your pc a full anti-virus and anti-spyware scan a.s.a.p.

Those are just scams. Specially if they say to not tell anyone about it because of a number problem or something like that. Give us more info on what you supposedly won and who it is from and I can give you more info to go to.
Search for 419eaters site and look at the scams listed there.

If they ask you to send money in order to collect the prize, it is probably a scam. You can check on www.snopes.com to see if there is anything about the organization that is saying you won the prize. You can also Google the organization to see if anything is said about them.
Good luck!

1. did you enter the contest?
2. do you have to send money or credit card details to receive prize?
3.(as they say on the real hustle) If it seems too good to be true it probably is!

It`s a scam. Don`t answer the e-mail, dump it.
You don`t get anything for nothing.
Simply ditch the email.
