Gee, you mean that the scammer who has been sending out the British Lottery, Yahoo Lottery, and Microsoft Lottery has gotten bored and changed the name.
Sorry, you didn't win anything, they're trying to scam you. Respond and they'll tell you there's some kind of "delivery fee" so they can send you your prize. Send it, and you'll just be out that money, there is no real prize.

ya i do get emails like that sometimes...
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.

Does the word "SCAM" mean anything to you?
