Yahoo Internet Lottery
Today I received the exact same e mail about winning the Yahoo lottery and since I have received 2 Folders full of all kinds of things from folks in the UK saying they need me to 'stand in' for a dead person to receive money, to pick up a check and cash for some 'starving artist', etc., I figured this one was bogus too. I admit, I looked a little closer since it does have the actual Yahoo logo, etc., but if I'm not expecting any money, then I'm sure not going to get it dropped in my lap from out of nowhere! If I played the lottery, I would be checking with them every day, they wouldn't have to contact me and have me provide info for them. BEWARE, it looks legit!
