After reciving thise email i send those things to theire following email http://www.samsungclaimsdept@live.co.uk. after that they sand me another email that one of there agent is coming and they provide me some attechment of the photocopy of my winning certificat and their agent's paaport and a box.

No way...if you didn't enter a contest, you did not win.

Samsung would not use such an email service, this is a phishing email sent to many thousands of people to get their info for spam advertising or identity theft.

sorry this is a scam going around and one way i can tell you easily is the email @live is not a Samsung company nor does Samsung use @live also if there are grammar mistakes it is also a sign Samsung has specialists making sure that every form a punctuation is used to be more formal. i recommend calling this number 1800-726-7864 this is there contact line and you may report the email. reporting it will save you and millions of other people from this scam. If you look up Samsung fraud 100s of website reporting lottery winnings and drawing which is what you got. you are one of millions that was scammed luckily you asked before believing.
