Please share this scam alert with your friends on social media.
This is a variant of the typical kind of lottery scam message, using the name of Google, a respected company, to try to lure you into the scam. (The real Google has nothing to do with the message, of course.) The message comes with an attachment (deleted here), and you should always remember not to open attachments from unknown senders.
