what lottery did you play that you gave them your email address?

It's not. I get that kind of spam all the time.
If you didn't buy a ticket; it's a scam
If they want personal info, it's a scam
If you need to PAY for anything it's a scam
in short: it's a scam
It is a scam. How did you win a lottery that you didn't even participate in? That right there should tell you something.
for starters, if you didn't enter a lottery, it's probably fake.and even if you did enter a lottery, it's probably fake.
If they ask you for personal information or bank information, it's probably fake.
Well, let's think.
Did you win a lottery? If no, it's bullsht.
If yes, they wouldn't be e-mailing you.
It's bullsht. A scam or virus. Leave it alone.
its a fake sorry.

It isn't. You aren't notified about winning lotteries by email. Report it as spam.
it's a scam to find out if the random e-mail address is active.. don't answer or open it just delete..
its a famous scam dude. Delete it and put it on your ignore list. A legitimate organisation would go to further lengths to contact you like by telephone or in person or perhaps by a registered letter. Do you even remember entering into any lotto?
Its a bunch of crap trust me.
fake
Did you play a lottery?
did you give them you email address?
i doubt a company will email you if you win
chances of it being real is .01%
Those email are scams. Never trust any mail that claims you are a winner if you have not entered any prize form. Do not click on the links in the mail. When you do it alerts others that your email account is used by you for spammers to hit you with more junk mail. To find out if the mail sent to you is legitimate move your mouse over the link and you will see the web address. From there write the web site down and then search it in google's search bar. (such as yahoo). You can then find out more information about such sites that you get in your email.
The first question you should ask yourself is "Did I enter this lottery?" More than likely, the answer is "No." Don't be fooled by anything like this. It is what is called Advance Fee Fraud. What will happen once you respond is a fee will be requested in order to get the money to you. They will ask for your bank account so they can wire the alledged lottery winnings to you after you send them the fee requested. Do not respond! There are many other similar advance fee fraud scams going on as well. Check out the websites I have linked to the sources area.
Here is some sound advice.It seems to good to be true, it is too good to be true. Anytime you receive email, whether it be spam or scam, forward it to Spam@UCE.gov. The Federal Trade Commission is notified of this type of mail at this address. Also, you will be helping in the fight against this type of email and fraud.
The rule is if you didn't enter a contest you can't Winn, If you didn't apply for it you didn't get it. Nothing is free I don't care what they tell you. Most of those lottery things you have to send them10,20,30,40 dollars to get in in the next week they send you another letter and say you are now in the top group send 10,20,30 more and so on.Publisher clearing house you have to buy books they say you don't but .The mucky muck says the only time you ever pay money for contest /lottery is when you buy the ticket or you pay taxes when you have the money in you re hand.
I agree, that this fraud. But swindlers need to be punished. The law not always it can, but one company has punished, any more once, such charlatans. And clients of this company it is quite good on it earn. You approximately wish to earn also 30 % from that sum what they have offered as a prize? Address on a site www.sany.web-box.ru . By the way, if someone has suffered from nigerians, too address. Forgive - English is deformed specially. Me have learned such safety from viruses.
