Having no trust in any award services that first require you to send them money is probably a good place to start. Be glad the lesson only cost you $16.78

You said: ".this incident has made feel no trust in any award services."
This is a good policy and good advice.
Unless it's something you entered or applied for and they are just sending it to you with no request for money, you can be 100% sure it's a scam.
First, you don't win something you didn't enter.
Second, I you win something legitimate, they will not ask for money.
