Is this a scam?

[frgreg92]

I got an email that I did not open telling me I won a $500 Gap Summer Sweepstakes. I don't remember entering such sweepstakes. Should I delete it?

frgreg92 - I'd right click on the email & select PROPERTIES - that will show you the addy it came from & if it's legit.

If you aren't sure, select details for seeing the body of the email for more info - that way if there is a cootie, you are protected!

fyi - you can C&P that info if you need help

Did you enter the gap casting call from family.com? here is part of the prize list:


Sixteen (16) Runner-Up Prizes (four from each of the Categories): Finalists not selected as Grand Prize winners will be deemed Runner-Up winners and will each receive a $500 Gap gift card. ARV: $500.

Here is the actual address that I did not enter yet. It does seem fishy to me, and unless someone here says it's legit I'm not going to attempt it: http://29486333.blingblingfrogs.com/c.php?aid=140&lid=8185

By the way, thank you delimama66 and amy for your help.

Thanks idpdiane. That confirms my suspicions.
