Answer 3

This is a SCAM. The below links confirm many 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.

Answer 4

If you had been entering all this lottery things, than my may be true. But if you haven't, they aren't true. If the emails are from the same place, than you can block them. I think there is a software that can filter your spams.

if they're asking for $ in advance fock 'em it's a scam. believe me no one's gonna get out of their own way to gratuitously remind you that you won an exhuberant amount of $. besides, if you would've participated in such thing, wouldn't you at least have remembered to check the winning numbers "just in case"
