Answer:
It is a scam to get your personal information and/or money. Do not respond to it. Report it to yahoo, so they are aware.

And for some reason you thought we wanted to read all this crap? Of course it's true. I've won dozens of these and am a gazillionaire now. Duh! Now that you have opened this can of spam, you will get more and more. You send a notice back to the spammer when you open crap like this, that gives the spammer your real email address. He didn't have it, up to then. NOW he does! and he's already sold that information to other spammers. You have a spam button or spam folder, why is this not in it?
Scam!!!!! That message is both a fake and an outright fraud. Don't contact the phishers and give them any of your personal information at all. Spam that scam message straight into oblivion right away. This is one lottery you'll never win because it's "bogus." Another thing, the phishers telling you to "keep this lottery information confidential" would indicate to you not to say anything about this to anybody until they have finished scamming you.
