It's a scam - there is no such thing as online awards/lotteries that pick random email addresses as winners. If you didn't buy a lottery ticket then you have 0 chance of winning.

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.

It's a scam, if you reply to the email, they will tell you to contact a "winnings department". That "department" (the same people using a different email address) will then tell you to pay the "courier fee" upfront.

I answered and I gave them my cell number to call me, but they sent another e mail and insist to give copy of ID or driving license.
