Are the online lotto spams for real?

Question

they said i won 10 million dollars.

Answer 1

Of course there for real.  I am now a multi millionaire. I won on Canadian, Nigerian and Chad lottery.  I have just got to wait for cheques to arrive.  The fees you have to pay  up front are a small price to pay (£4675).  Just  ordered my Merc.

Answer 2

The online lotto spams you receive are real enough, sent by thieves, but the fact that they tell you that you have won 10 million dollars IS A LIE.   Check out the below link for confirmation of various email scams hitting the internet, 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.
