Yes i read about it,because i receive e-mail similar to yours saying i won millions for 3 consecutive times.They will ask for your credit card,fortunately i have no credit card.When i ask for bank transfer they would not reply.So im figuring it is a fake lottery.I did not respond to it again.

This is definitely a scam. I've received an e-mail of the same nature. I believe they'll eventually ask you to pay for something in order to process the money for the lottery. After payment, you'll end up not getting anything. So beware....

Anything with the words international and lottery in the same email happens to be spam. There is no such thing as the international lottery and even if there was how did they get your email address? And where did the (insert ungodly amount of money here) come from? Its all spam and I suggest you just delete it before you release your personal information across the web.
