Loteria Primitiva Shell Marketing S.A. scam Alahurin De La Torre Spain

I recieved a letter from the El Gordo Loteria Primitiva--Spain stamp and no return address. Upon opening it up, it stated that I had won 615,810 Euros, like other ripoff-reporters (what a coinky-dink!). It had a security file number, ticket number, and 6 lottery numbers (24-7-11-15-0-6). The letter instructed me, that if I couldn't come directly to Spain to claim the prize, I could fax in a payment processing form. This form asked for name, address, DOB, telephone number, bank account info, and next of kin. The form told me to contact Jose Gracia at Shell Marketing S.A.

This is totally a scam! No return address, photo copied letter to look like watermarks, horrible grammer, half english-half spanish, and many other indiscrepancis.

As a side note, this was addressed to me under my maiden name, mispelled. The only thing I get in the mail that is similarly mispelled is my Qwest phone bill. You may also want to check on your privacy policies, so scammers can't buy your name/address!
