It's a scam, period .You didn’t enter a lottery, and All you are going to win is an empty bank account and more trouble than you ever dreamed of. Possibly a “courier” bill for a few thousand to “deliver” a “prize” you’ll never see. If you want to bother, forward the fraudulent email to phishing@cc.yahoo-inc.com, spam@uce.gov, and 419.fcd@usss.treas.gov.

Really! You need to ask if this is a scam? All they want from you is your bank account number, there are like 50 didfferent versions of this letter, they have been doing this by email for the past several years as well. Anyone asking you to cash a check for money that you have not earned is a scam. Did you enter the sweepstakes? Do you know anyone is Holland? Do not ever respond to one of these letters as it would result in more letters. Advice is do not even think twice about throwing it away, dump it, burn it, just get rid of it. Good Luck.

No, sorry, it's just a scam. This is one of the very common scams on the Internet right now. If you respond, they'll tell you that you have to send a delivery fee to get your prize. Uh-huh - then if you send it, guess what -- no prize arrives.

if you don't have an entry receipt, it is a scam.
send no money.
do not tell them your banking information
anyone can rent a telephone number and box address in America -- crooks and criminals frequently do.
