If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. If the email is from a Yahoo email address, forward it with full headers to abuse@yahoo.com. Seems like I've been getting a lot of that junk lately.

its yet another scam, there are 2 purposes to these scams. 1 to get you to pay a fee - they get a few thousand gullible people to pay $20 or so they are happy. 2 to get an email from you confirms that your email address is 'live' so they then have a nice fresh list of emails they can sell on as being live and earn a nice living from getting you on yet more spam lists. so never reply to these scumbags

Absolutely not. It's a scam. Please do not answer it or you may find yourself on every spammers list worldwide--if you don't actually end up having your identity stolen.
