Blackberry does not have a sweepstake or any other promotions with a large cash prize. And, if you are ever asked to send money in order to claim your prize, it is a scam.
Also, if you didn't take part in a promotion or sweepstakes and received an email message or text message claiming you are a winner, it is a scam.
