Is this Spam?

I can usually spot the Spam ones (due to spelling mistakes, wording, etc), but am really not sure about this one. I don't remember signing up to the newsletter and can't find mailbazaar when I do a search on here. Also, the address is a bit suspicious. What do you think? The subject line said: Congrats Georgie - You have received a Native NSH-1 headset!

The rest of the email says this:

    The link in the email goes to this website: http://www.lotto24.co.uk/c/835/.
    At the bottom are these T&Cs: 0sHaEUq.jpg

    Also, a Google search for 'EM Medier' beings up this result (my bold):
    EM Medier is an advertisement company promoting known products via direct email marketing.
    I think it's spam, sorry. Good luck, I'm sure you've got a great win heading your way.

    Thank you so much for your very thorough search, cooldude255220. I'm moving the email straight into the trash.

    These spammers are getting a little bit too clever at this!

    No problem. :)

    Yeah. When in doubt, ask MSE! Is that a saying? If it isn't, I think it should be. :p
