[Resolved]  MSN/Yahoo Lottery Board — Winning of a lottery worth 950,000.00 British Pounds Sterling

Have received a mail from The above mentioned Company wherein they have stated that I have got a mail of winning 950,000.00 British Sterling Pounds but to get a delivery of the cheque I need to send them an amount of Rs.53,000. as courier charges. Does this not sound rediculous?
