Because it is a scam. If you 'won' something, why do they need your banking, or credit card info? You won it, it's free, isn't it? Well, no it isn't. It's a well know 419 Nigerian scam. They will either (a) Steal every dime out of your bank account, or (b) Max out your credit card. Remember: ANY request for an advance fee, or personal information on a prize, lottery, Government Grant, gift, loan, etc. IS A SCAM. Advance fee scams are very well known Nigerian 419 scams.
