Yes it is a scam.I always got messages like that.Why do we need to call them if we already won,they should be the first who will call us if we won,not a text from unknown mobile number.This is part of their modus.Yeah this scam is too old for anyone of us to believe.Lucky o us we are more intelligent than them hahaha..They should stop fooling other people.
