NETLOTTERY CORPORATION ripoff Internet

I received a winning notification e-mail which promised that I had won a lottery which was randomly chosen from e-mail addresses and companies around the world.

The message promised me that I had won and offered congratulations, it stated that I had won via a e-mail ticket number with a serial number which had drawn the following lucky numbers.

The message also required that I provide a great deal of personal, identifying information before they could process my winnings and deposit them to my account.

I googled the company and discovered that a number of other net users had reported an almost identical message and recognized it as fraud. I wonder how I became a winner?
