I received this email stating that I've just won a visa lottery, but I thought Nigerians were no longer eligible for USA visa lottery. Please anyone with information about this please kindly advise.

Goldenboy is right. Did you play the lottery?

Moreso, this is some kind of scam because the last
lottery didn't favor Nigerians so I doubt if this is real.

Moreso, there should be some kind of confirmation
code you can use to check your result online
