If you received an e-mail saying that you won, but never entered anything then it's a scam, if you bought a ticket, then it's real.

False! it's a scam!!! Forward the email to spam@uce.gov
----------------------------------
To Avoid scams here is what i tell people...
All spam emails/unsolicited phone calls/letters and faxes are scams.
As a general rule - ANYTHING involving Western Union/money gram = Scam.
my Advice: Don't deal with anyone out of state or from a foreign country or Accept or cash checks from strangers and never use wire/bank transfer services.. you risk losing your $$ and your mind.
Remember, if it sounds too good
to be true, it probably is! NEVER(ever) give out your personal information to strangers online or offline! Always be on guard.

feels like a rip-off. i does no longer purchase it. I gained a similar one like that for the AU nationwide lottery approximately 3 weeks in the past. A u . s . citizen wining a distant places lottery which I had no theory existed. a hundred% junk mail-rip-off.

If you got an email saying you won it, just delete it - it's a scam.
If you respond, they'll tell you to send a "delivery fee" or "courier fee" so they can deliver your "prize". There isn't really any prize, but you'd be out these fees if you sent them.
