Do you think this is a hoax/spam or did I really win?

I got a voice mail, it was a recording and this is what it said:

"This message is for (my name) of (my address): Hi, my name is Michael Smith giving you a call in regards to the e-mail (my e-mail address) which was submitted online to fill out an entry form to win a lincoln navigator vehicle among other prizes. Congratulations this contest is now officially over and your ticket entry has been selected as a winner. What you need to do is contact your prize director at (number) as soon as possible. Thank you and have a blessed day".

I don't remember filling out any entry form, I don't like to put my information online unless is a known website...such as petsmart.com, walmart.com etc. I haven't called the number because I think its a telemarketer. What do you think?
If I asked this in the wrong section please tell me which one to ask it in. I couldn't find one that fit.
 
Of course this is a scam!!!!

Here are the obviously clues:
1. This would never happen anyway.
2. His name is Michael Smith - how common a name is that?...
3. Talking about something u filled online
4. Have a blessed day - all the scams use religious talk because they think most American's are deeply religious and more acceptable to scams if you say that.
