Answer 2

OF COURSE it's fake. As soon as they asked for ANY of your personal information you should have known it was fake. You're the kind of person they look for.

Answer 3

Don"t send any money!!!!!!!!!!  Or any personal INFO... Also u will be getting all kinds of junk mail... Just toss it

Answer 4

If something sounds too good to be true, it is!!  NEVER NEVER NEVER give out your personal information especially credit cards numbers, bank account numbers, social security numbers, etc etc etc.  Do yourself a big favor and delete those emails, then set your spamguard and filters to the most aggressive setting possible.

Answer 5

Nothing in life is free.  I would be willing to bet this was a scam.  Alot of these scams will use the "application" to get your personal info which they can use to open credit cards, etc and futher scam you.  I would get a copy of your credit report to be sure nothing new has been opened, charged just in case.  Unfortunately, I would not count on getting the money.

Answer 6

its a fake

theres lots of these things going around

DO NOT GIVE ANY PERSONAL DETAILS

Answer 7

The only one getting any money is the scammers if you give them your credit card info. RED FLAG - IF YOU WIN SOMETHING AND IT IS LEGIT, WHY WOULD YOU NEED TO PAY ANYTHING????
