winners lottery

I would like to verify how true is lottery winners can really claim their cash winning?

I just received an email coming from the Lottery Promotion which was organized by Yahoo Lottery INC. & Windows Live. Is these true? Are these not one of those who are corrupting people asking for few amount before they will send their cash won and the bad thing is they are asking the bank account number and i’ve heared lots of problem encountered and those who are victims are crying in tears. They thought blessings came after knowing they won but to no avail it was another misfortune in their life taking advantage it will lift up their problem and even thinking of helping other needy family members but to no luck its all turn up misserable. Hope you will response to this mail. I wish its true for there are few people needing my help. Thanks and more power to yahoo for i been using these for a long time.

It is scam. Yahoo (insert any company name here, this answer works for all!) do not run an email lottery, if they did you could guarantee it would be advertised all over their home page. Check out these links and search answers to see how many people ‘win’ the exact same lottery every day

Do not click on any links, the page you will be taken to will look authentic but is not
Do not send them a ‘courier fee’ or any other money
Do not hand over any bank details or passwords

Do report spam
Do delete

Remember there is no such thing as a free lunch. You cannot win a lottery if you haven ot bought a ticket. Anyone can set up an email account with Yahoo, they can use any combination of letters they choose. I could be ‘thequeenmother@yahoo.com’ or ‘disneyfreeticketsgenuine@yahoo.com’ That doesn’t mean that I am either of these and is fine as long as I don’t try to use the address to mislead people. Don’t be fooled by legitimate looking email addresses which end the same way as any other free account, don’t be fooled by fictitious titles such as ‘Dr’ or ‘Executive Director of Winner Claims’.
