Think you know your TV, music and film? Try Search Charades! DeleteReplyForwardSpamMove...

This is called a 419 scam. there are many places on the net that you can report them. Unfortunately Yahoo does nothing.

YOu know whats funny? My mom called me a few months ago, I was up in Boston I think. Anyway she's like "Paul (my step dad) won $300,000 from the UK lottery! do you think it's legit?" and they had their hopes all up and had actually email the place with some info, but not the big stuff. Then it took me 2 seconds flat to find online that it was a scam.

Some people get sucked into that stuff.

If you turn on your full headers (mail>options>general preferences) and forward a copy to abuse@yahoo.com, they will delete that email account (which costs the scammer 2-3 minutes and maybe someone who is willing to pay his "fees")... abuse@ also works for most of the free emails... hotmail, etc...
Then, post the scam email:
