    Its fake, i didn’t even need to read the whole thing to know it was fake. I got exactly the same ones. I never remember entering any competitions or lotteries. Just ignore it, If you really won they would call you. I’m so sorry to disappoint you but its better you know.

    Well, what do YOU think? They’re hoping you think it’s legitimate, of course!! Did you enter a contest? If not, then how in the world do you suppose you WON?
