It's a scam, period .You didn’t enter a lottery. All you are going to win is an empty bank account and more trouble than you ever dreamed of. Possibly a “courier” bill for a few thousand to “deliver” a “prize” you’ll never see.g. If you want to bother, forward the fraudulent email to phishing@cc.yahoo-inc.com, spam@uce.gov, and 419.fcd@usss.treas.gov.

the catch is that the company won't exist, and that they will be scamming you. either inserting worm programs into your computer to track your financial transactions, or you have to deposit money in order to claim your prize.
Don't reply to the email. Don't download any attachments. Do some research on the company, and see if you can find them. There's a group who tracks down these scammers... i think they're 'the nigerian scam' or something like that. Find them and report it to them. |

I'd be very careful and just instantly delete it. Most of these are to get you to give bank details, adresses and identity out to complete strangers. A know it sounds good but nothing in life is free. |

They want your bank account numbers, and for you to cash a check that will bounce, you will send them a portion of the money and you are left owing the bank lots and lots of money...
Report it to who ever it came from. |

It's a scam.
Just delete it - or mark it as SPAM.
DO NOT contact the people involved.
If you EVER get email saying a company (microsoft, yahoo, Honda, Chevrolette, Ford - etc.) has done a lottery and you won.. CONTACT HEADQUARTERS and let them know!!
They might just give you a little reward if it's a NEW scam and you are the FIRST one to let them know.
By little - I mean.. don't expect much!!!

They never send you the money, they get your information and steal your identity, or have you pay them money. |

It's definitely a scam, don't ever trust these money-winning emails. The standard instructions on these emails are usually telling you to send this non-existent company money before you can claim the prize money, for reasons such as processing and other crap. And once you've placed the money 'deposit' in the bank account, you can see that they won't contact you again. DON'T FALL FOR IT. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY SUCH CASES ABOUT PEOPLE FALLING FOR SUCH 'GET-RICH' SCHEMES. |

It's a scam of some sort. so delete it and add the sender to your blocked list.
If you do respond you will probably asked for all sorts of personal details as part of an attempt to steal your identity, or possibly just your cash.

these all are junk or fake mails which emanate from the websites. all these are to be ignored they will try to exploit the human weakness of tempting to encash unwarranted or unexpected treasure and they i mean fraudsters will get advantage if u answer them with a valuable information like bank account number, your phone number address etc.., just ignore them and seekhelp from yahoo stating that they are abuse mail/spam mail |

You will be asked to open a special account to which they have access to with passwords. They will ask you to prime the account with cash.
They will steal your cash, close the account and bugger off, laughing up their sleeve. |

I get two or three of these each week. Just delete them. I don't even open them (afraid of a virus). Obviously, they snag a fish every once in a while or they wouldn't keep doing it. Don't let that fish be you!!! |

Definitely a SCAM!!!!!!! Delete the email after reporting it!!! |

Note that you can cut down on spam emails by being careful who you give your email address to. Using it as a screen name on sites like yahoo is not a good idea, for example. |
