Yahoo! Lottery Results you won £950,000.00! Yahoo! Mail congratulates you!
Yahoo! Mail announces you as one of the 10 lucky winners in the ongoing
Yahoo Lottery Draw held in March, 2008.
All 10 winning email addresses were randomly selected from a batch of 50,000,000 international emails each from Canada , Australia , United States , Asia, Europe, Middle East, Africa and Oceania as part of our international
promotions program which is conducted annually, consequently, you have been approved for a total pay out of £950,000.00 GBP (NINE HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND GREAT BRITISH POUNDS STERLING). This is part of our security protocol to avoid double claiming and unwarranted taking advantage of this programme by non-selected winner or unofficial personnel.

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. Just remember the thieves who send them are very clever and extremely convincing. I suggest you delete the email and send it into cyberspace, hopefully along with the thieving scumbags who send them.
