I have supposedly won an unknown amount of money from them. was told that UPS would deliver the money... (that sounds strange to me).
I haven't been asked for any money, but gave them my address, email, and age. I felt this was a scam, so thought I should investigate further. wish I had some good true advise about this.

I just got one from Facebook and it is for the Facebook promo and it is meant to be a secret. They gave me a list of different numbers and that the delivery men will deliver it to me. They gave me a amount to send to them for shipping and I had only two days left. I asked for extra days but I didn't have any money. What is this?

They will ask their potential victims send money in order to receive their so-called prize. If the victims send their money, it will be stolen by the scammers, who will take it and disappear.
