They said I won a price of 1 milion $ and they ask me my personal data. I think it's a spam. Should I announce the police? I believe other people received similar e-mails.

There is a loser born every day-Nothing in this world is for free. These scams originate mainly out of Africa. Beware of anything that asks for Bank details, email passwords etc, even if it looks like its official. Always check with the source if its purporting to be from ebay, banks etc. You will find their originating address isn't right, actualy yahoo hosts a lot of these scammers, so beware, like I said, nothing in this world is for free.
Report it and forward it then delete it and forget it

It's a SCAM, I get emails about them all the time. About 5 a day in fact, saying I've won the lottery...The police can't do anything. Chances are, bythe time people reply it's been shut down anyway. Just DON'T reply however good it looks!

enable me wager - their touch data is a unfastened Yahoo or Hotmail e mail handle. Do you particularly think of a huge business enterprise that provides away money might have a unfastened e mail handle every person can get? this is a huge fat rip-off. you are able to not win money except you purchase a value ticket in a real lottery.

I received lots of such mail too. There don't seem to be a way to stop these, I just add to spam. Here's another scam. Please check this Hot Alert: Latest Telecommunication scam http://lost-newbie.blogspot.com/

Just ignore them. Delete it. There is no point reporting it. It could be coming from hijacked addresses so there is no way of tracing it.
