This is what FedEx has to say about this lottery scam:

Thank you for contacting FedEx. We regret any inconvenience you experienced as a result of this situation.

The sender of the email is falsely identifying FedEx as the originator of the email. Our Internal Security department is aware of the situation.

However, if you still have the actual email in your inbox, please forward it to abuse@fedex.com. FedEx's IT department will terminate the IP address.

Attempts have been made to disguise emails and websites that appear to originate from FedEx. Our company does not send emails advising that we have specific goods or merchandise in our possession and require up-front payment by money transfer before the goods will be delivered.

FedEx does not take part of or are affiliated with any organizations offering, special purchases, loans or investment opportunities. Especially when there is "Free" gifts that require you to pay "shipping and handling", "redemption fees" or "taxes" before delivery.

Also, be wary or cautious when you are about to receive an unexpected check, money order or cash from an unknown Shipper. These financial instruments may be counterfeit.

We hope this information is helpful. Thanks again for taking the time to contact us.
