Any and all e-mails stating you have been awarded or have won money are nothing more than scams. Do not open! Delete without reading.

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. As for contacting Y! about the message, you can go report it here: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/yahoomail/abuse.html Choose Fraud as the reason for the violation you're reporting on.

This is a SCAM. If you click on the below link this site confirms various email scams hitting the internet and provides an online form for the reporting of all scams and frauds - (with links for your own country.) http://www.consumerfraudreporting.org/lotteryscam_Yahoo2.php http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yoo2.phpahoo/... Unscrupulous thieves have sent you this email and they are trying to part you from your hard earned cash. They will often ask you to call a premium rate number and keep you holding on whilst you rack up a huge phone bill. They are then paid a large proportion of this phone bill. They may ask you to divulge personal information about yourself or ask for your bank or credit card details. Do not divulge any such information under any circumstances. It is surprising how many innocent victims have been duped by these types of emails. Please remember the thieves who send them are very clever and extremely convincing. I suggest you delete the email and send it into cyberspace where it belongs. Check out these sites for further information : http://www.scambusters.com http://www.hoax-slayer.com/
