POWERBALL LOTTO-WHEEL E-GAME 2007,
No, I'm afraid this isn't a real lottery. This is in fact a scam, a fraud.
A group of criminals have taken the name of a real lottery (once which does not work online and which does not announce results by email) and are using it to try and trick you.
They will ask you to send them money in order to release your prize. Anything that you send will just be kept by the criminals and no prize will ever be sent to you.
Ignore it, it's a scam, a fraud, a fake.

Got the scam email today telling me of Lamborghini's "joy" at my Powerball Lotto win. A bit of a hyperbole there, I think! I noted that Mr. Alan Jones confuses consolation with "consultation" (quote consultation prize unquote). One is evidently presented with a prize if ones consults Lamborghini! On the data to be provided by me, one of the questions to be answered was if I had any physical "diability"!
How Mr. Jones located me and my email is a mystery to me.
