USAA Intl Foreign Language award..scam or not?

<p>I got a letter today from UUSAA, saying I was nominated as a USAA International Foreign Language Award Winner. Apparently my french teacher chose me for this? It sounds very sketchy to me. They are selling books, and it says your biography can be published free in the book. Very sketchy indeed. </p>

<p>Anyone know if this is a scam or not?</p>
