Answer:
Sorry to tell you it’s a fraud...and seems that it has been going on for several months now, and under different names [Yahoo mail pack prize, Yahoo Mail Flash 2007 prize… and I am sure some other names as well], they tell you won some amount of money and you should follow step 1, 2 and 3 to claim and verify the prize] and that its secured by Verisign and then you have to donate 5% out of it to AHIP in Nigeria before they mail you the money... Just ignore it. Don’t give them any kind of personal info…and report it to [email protected] By the way, if it relate to yahoo the company..their mail should end with yahoo-inc.com..everybody else their mail end with yahoo.com

It's a scam. They want your info and they create a fake site that looks real to steal your info. Don't click on it.
