ROFL, it's a scam. Besides the humangous amount that you never expected to get from anybody in the first place, the fee to obtain the money is the key. You pay and they, the promised money, and the money you paid, disappear...
A bank draft btw is like when you pay a bill online with your checking account as a payment method. The company will draft the money directly from your checking account. No FedEx, UPS, USPS or any other delivery company involved;)
