Just think, how could anyone win a lottery without buying a ticket. These people send you a bogus cashier's check for you to put into your account and then get you in return to send a fee upfront or after you have deposited the check into your account. Normally 30 days later you get a notice from your bank or the F.B.I. informing you that you have engaged a counterfeit check cashing scam that you are solely responsible for.

This is a SCAM. The below links confirm various email scams hitting the internet. There is also an online form for the reporting of such - (with links for your own country.)

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. Please remember the thieves who send them are very clever and extremely convincing. I suggest you delete the email and send it into cyberspace.
