Well, Ada, did you enter that contest????? No??? You can not win something you did not enter or play. Besides Yahoo, Hotmail, Gmail, Microsoft, MSN, Google and Aol do not have lotteries, reward programs, promotions, or contests.
When an E-mail offer sounds too good to be true, then it is definitely not true.
It is a scam to get your personal information and/or money.
Do not respond to it.
Report it, forward it to the FTC at [email protected] and to the abuse desk of the sender's ISP.
For yahoo, report them here: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/ya...
Choose Fraud as the reason for the violation you're reporting on.
Also, if the E-mail appears to be impersonating a bank or other company or organization, forward the message to the actual organization.

That looks like an e-mail designed to gather information for identity theft.

Delete the e-mail. This is a classic attack.

If you need reassurance, then go onto Google's website and find the right e-mail. Ask them if they've been doing this, and provide a link to a copy of the text in the e-mail. Then they will tell you that it's a baited trap, like I am saying now. In fact it would be good for everyone else if you reported it so that filtration of that e-mail can proceed.

lol thats the biggest scam ive ever seen.
for one look at his email [email protected]
if he really worked for google it would probably be somthing more like [email protected]

anyone could have made up the origional one.
plus the fact they say they are going to write u a cheque for £450,000.00 is mad of course they will put a huge amount to lure you in i mean who ever heard of someone winning nearly half a million from an unknown comp?

you may think that these questions below:
(1) Your contact address.
(2) Your Tel/Fax numbers.
(3) Your Nationality/Country.
(4) Your Full Name.
(5) Sex.
(6) Occupation
(7) Age.

are harmless because its not like your giving out your bank details or NI number but people have had their identitys stolen with somthing as simple as they name, address and tel number.
dont write back just delete it or better still report it to google if you can and see what they say but im sure its a scam

It's a scam. DO NOT ANSWER IT. Delete it. There is no such thing as a Google Lottery. They just want your personal information. Besides, you can't win a lottery without buying a ticket. Did you? Of course not.

Negative. Total scam.
