Chosen solution

This was a hoax as it was not sent by Mozilla.

See http://blog.gerv.net/2011/08/hoax_mozilla_firefox_online_promo/ as this has popped up for a few years now.

hello NourEl-huda, you're right to be suspicious about that message. this is fraudulent and not genuine, so please don't get into contact with them. mozilla is a non-profit organization and doesn't have these amounts of money to give away - it is investing its funds into developing its great open source products and furthering the cause of the open web!
