This a total scam and don't fall for it.....if you call they will
tell you that they are sending you a check for "taxes" or
something and that you are to cash it and send a portion
back for the "taxes" then a week or so later the check
bounces and you are totally out of money. Its a fairly
common scam, don't be a ******.

whooHOOO. You hit the jackpot baby!!! Oh wait---you just won a lottery you never heard of and you didn't buy a ticket???
SCAAAAAAAMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!
do not fall for this. what happens is that if you contact them, they will tell you, yes you won millions of dollars, but you just have to send them a cheque for $4000 to pay the taxes....!!!!
Believe it or not, some suckers actually DO send these guys money. Do NOT become another ******. These are pretty well known scams on the internet.

No, it's not true, just a scam - but you knew that when you asked, didn't you?
They'll either ask for personal information, or tell you that you need to send them a delivery or courier fee to get your prize. In any case, there is no prize, you didn't win anything. Most people with email addresses have gotten several of these.

Are you seriously thinking that you won a contest that you never entered? You can obviously type and turn on the computer, so you can't be that stupid, can you?
If so, I have some desert property here at the beach for sale.

It's a scam. Just google "e-lottery fraud" and you'll get loads of hits about this and similar scams.

no. you should never believe these things, because they will eventually ask for your bank account number.
