So far they have not asked for any money or identity theft type info. Could this be real? I am doubtful, but dont want to miss out if its on the up and up. If theres anyone in Britian the name is Roland Moore (fiduciary agent?) and his address is United Kingdom. 36 Bridge St. Staines. Middlesex TW184TP. London
Help please?

This is definitely a scam. I get about five per day.
Just delete it and ignore it..

Hey, I won those lotteries!!!
actually, did you buy a ticket? If not, then how could you ever win?
The rules are:
1. you BUY a ticket
2. you hope your numbers are picked!
And, no one ever gets some stranger a ticket? yes, it happens, on a lark, as a tip...
But, in those cases, they don't ask for your private bank info, and then raid your accounts!
That name is a legend in Nigerian Scams! Almost sounds British, doesn't it? But, he speaks broken English, with a very West African accent!
Oh, I know, YOU want to believe in the unknown benefactor, the tooth fairy, the pot o' gold at the end of the rainbow, the Easter Bunny, and Santa Clause!
Believe if you want to, but, send them no money nor personal banking or credit info!

International lotteries are a scam, they make everything sound perfect until you are asked to send in some form of processing fee...just try typing "international lottery" into yahoo search and see what it brings up for you, and you will see what exactly it is....also international lotteries are not recognized in the United States anyhow.

It's a hoax....do they state HOW you won the lottery? How did they get your information to begin with? And why are they contacting through emails?? Ask these types of questions and I am sure you will get a correct answer as to what to do.

Don't fall for it!
I've had plenty of these emails - report them to Yahoo or ask for their advice on how to deal with them - I am sure they will help you!
Stay safe...
