SiMuLaCrUm:
So I looked in my E-mail to find a message from a so-called "Linux Lotto," the message being called "Your Linux Results."

Lead Head:
Wonder if perhaps they got your email from a forum, and going by things you typed, they tried to make up some companies.

Refalm:
Wow this is weird. You need to send all of your personal information to Games.com, which an extention of AOL.

And, the address leads to a reliable open-source system administrator company.

The last bit is funny as hell, it says:
"The information in this message is confidential and possibly protected by law."

I knew AOL was an evil company, but I didn't think they were this evil.

I also found where they said they were "partnered with Apple" or something like that, and one of the prizes is a Toshiba laptop.
