Is this a scam?

[Mindalan]

I received an urgent email today from Samsung stating that I have won a QLED tv and have 24 hours to claim it.

I am happy to email screenshots of the email if needed. I have a strong call blocker on my phone and supposedly Samsung couldn't reach me.

That sounds 100% like a scam to me. Especially them saying "urgent" and "claim in 24 hours" typical scammer move to try and rush you into falling for it

Also, if you never entered a contest it it most definitely is

Life rule:

If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is.

Just right click the senders address and you can see if it's from Samsung.... pay attention to the spellings, word texts etc..

I have confirmed through SAMSUNG that this is most defiantly a SCAM!!  

Samsung will never proactively reach out requesting banking, or personal information unless you do something to prompt them for that information by asking a question regarding a Samsung product.
