Reply:I'm sorry to have to say it, but that is unfortunately a scam. Lotteries don't contact you when you win - you have to match your numbers to their list of winning numbers. If you don't come forward to claim your win, they don't award the money. Most of the time, they don't even ask for your contact information.
