I think this is a SCAM /FRAUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I state this for the following reasons:
1. Government email addresses are always end with "org" and not "com".
2. What has "Kentucky" to do with this visa lottery? It is just a state and immigration is a federal matter!
3. Government agencies always ask one to send photos via MAIL and never E-MAIL!
4. Since mailing in photos leads to issues of fraud, government never asks applicants to mail photos. They always ask the applicants to appear in person at consulates or agency offices, with photos !!

PLEASE CLARIFY THIS WITH THE FBI!
STILL BETTER CALL UP THAT PHONE NUMBER FROM A PUBLIC PHONE AND ASK about the details of this notice. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER GIVE out your personal details to random people like these!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IF THEY start pressurising you, it is certain that it seems to be a fraud.

Not to mention the poor grammar / unprofessional feel of the email, e.g. "We shall be anticipating for your reply soon." -- lol.

The 775 area code is apparently for Nevada?

A fraud mail

Hi there,

this email is a total fraud SO PLEASE DON'T GIVE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION TO THEM or let's say DON'T REPLY TO THEM.
 
Total Fraud

I don't think Western Union is an official channel for paying any governmental fees.

Yes, forward this to FBI.

If you are concerned, call up the Visa lottery department and verify the fact.
 
Sorry,
A mistake in my posting:

1. Government email addresses are always end with "gov" and in very rare cases "org", but not "com"
 
It's a scam!!! Government NEVER gives you the name of the person + their phone number to contact. The scam is there so that they can collect all your personal info, probably for indentity teft. Forward it to FBI.
 
Oh yeah, I just realized: they asked you for money transfer - they want your money. You transfer it and they never contact you again. It's a typical scam techinque on ebay.
