Answer 1

yes, this is how identities are stolen. you have to report this and change all your passwords. don't forget to notify your bank and review your credit history to make sure there aren't any credit cards or loans under your name which you did not authorize. please do not fall for these scams, there is no such thing as a free meal.

Answer 2

yes you were suckered in. better change all your information and prepare for the onslaught of bills from the people that are now you for the next 3- 4 years.  congrats on your winnings  by the way.    better find you ana ace identiy theft protection company and plan on paying for it for 2- 3 years,  ask your bank if they have one. cjhs

Answer 3

You're an idiot. If you spent any time on the internet you should have known these are scams.

Go to your bank, tell them the situation and "maybe" they can get it straightened out. Also, anything that someone can use to lift your identity can be at risk. NEVER respond to anything on email without checking out "who" it was sent from.
