It is proven now, all the e-mails sent to you cannot be trusted. Even if you have an anti-spam software, some fraudulent emails can still reach your inbox. So just delete mails from people you don't know or trust.

Its a good thing you didnt trust him !!
I hate those people claming that you have won a price then sell your email to spamming companies.

Ow well I at least call them spamming companies. They are not real companies though.

I think in forums their are almost 90 webmasters out of hundred and i don't expect this that any webmaster get fooled in such things , even i receive $ 10000000 lottery wining and other such emails which makes me also dreaming but don't believe on such mails .

Ive had quite a few emails like this, claiming to be hotmail asking for my password or similar. I always stay away from them and just delete them as quick as possible.
