All these messages (via SMS, email, etc.) saying that you have won in a lucky draw are SCAMS. As Kanarazu mentioned, simply ignore them.

Thank you everybody. Every time when I see such a message or phone numbers, I will ignore it. Sometimes, also receive calls saying that I'm picked for a free trip to certain countries, I just told them that I'm not interested. :sleep:
