Is this email <smartalecktestimonial@yahoo.com.sg> real or fake?
Recently, I've received a mail from Smart Aleck <smartalecktestimonial@yahoo.com.sg>, which claims that I'm the Yahoo! Answers Smart Aleck Testimonial Winner. They thank me for my testimonial contribution at www.yahoo.com.sg/smartaleck.
It also stated that they will send me a limited edition Answers notebook and a pair of ticket to the Gala Premier of Singapore Repertory Theater's production of The Pillowman on 10 November 2007.
But they need my full name, I/C number and mailing address before 4 November 2007 in order for them to process the prize.
They didn't address my name (i.e. Hi there), but it has a signature (i.e. Cheers,
Yahoo! Answers Smart Aleck promotion team) with a Yahoo! Answers logo.
Should I trust the email and give my information to them? Please help me to verfiy it. I wanted the prize so badly. Thanks!

Sounds extremely unlikely to me. I'd be very wary of it.
