This is a SCAM. Check out the below link for confirmation of various lottery scams, including the famous Yahoo/MSN lottery scams and how to report them.

Unscrupulous thieves have sent you this email and they are trying to part you from your hard earned cash. They will often ask you to call a premium rate number and keep you holding on whilst you rack up a huge phone bill. They are then paid a large proportion of this phone bill. They may ask you to divulge personal information about yourself or ask for your bank or credit card details. Do not divulge any such information under any circumstances. It is surprising how many innocent victims have been duped by these types of emails. Just remember the thieves who send them are very clever and extremely convincing. I suggest you delete the email and send it into cyberspace, hopefully along with the thieving scumbags who send them.

rather direct mail. The clues are: a million. Did you enter a sweepstakes/lottery? 2. the e mail isn't addressed to you for my area. 3. extreme capitalization and incorrectly built sentences. 4. there's a mixture up with the declare and to maintain it inner maximum. 5. That 10% belongs to the promotions corporation. 6. etc., etc. IF if sounds too reliable to be authentic - it rather is.
