This is a scam purportedly from Facebook - IT IS NOT LEGITIMATE - IT IS A SCAM (there are many scams seemingly from Facebook - be on-guard)First of all it came unsolicited - WARNING #1. Secondly it uses a Gmail account as the reply to address - Facebook, if it did have promotions such as this, would not use a Gmail address - WARNING #2
This is another Advanced Fee fraud modality. The scammer will ask for personal information and will load you with all kinds of costs to keep it going - filing fees, legal fees, postage, setting up a new bank account and many others.Delete it and of course do not respond to it.
