And, should they be reported to someone? I get them all the time.

Don't do anything. It's just an internet hoax. I have received those messages many times.

Just delete them.. they are all scams and have been all over the news for years and years. They tell people that they've won money but then want money up front as a trust in order to transfer the money to you. Then they are gone. I get wayy too many of them. You can report them as spam in Yahoo mail, though I don't know what exactly that does as these emails keep coming from different addresses.

they are trying to find someone to fall for their scam. Just delete them. You can block their email address, but it probably won't do much good as they just find another one. People do fall for those emails, or they wouldn't keep sending them. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is...

It's probably a scam. They probably want you to send them your account number first so they'll "know where to transfer the money to". Then they can clean out your account.
