Am I a winner in the Yahoo financial promotional lottery ref#yahoo6/315116127/27?


I have engaged in three emails about said promotion. I am now sent to a courier service. when I googled the name of the courier service I ran into references of a scam. I want an answer from you yes or no is this lottery winning real or not?

This is a SCAM. The below links confirm various scams, including the famous Yahoo/MSN lottery scams and how to report them - (with links to your own country) :

Unscrupulous thieves have sent you this message 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 for personal information about yourself and/or 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 messages. Please remember the thieves who send them are very clever and extremely convincing. I suggest you delete it and send it into cyberspace, hopefully along with the thieving scumbags who send them.

You have to PLAY a lottery to win it. No, it is a scam. If you enter a legitimate contest, and then win it, they notify you by registered mail, or by a comapny like UPS, to have you sign and notarize the official paperwork. My daughter won a car about 2 years ago and that is how it worked with her.

Never give any of your financial information out to someone who emails you!
