WORLDWIDE PROMOTION
Congrats,
Yahoo! is a commercial portal to sites on the World Wide Web. Yahoo! today includes many features not found in the original site, but retains at its core two basic services: a categorized, clickable, hierarchically classified list of human-selected Web sites and a search engine (qv) .

NO
you need to report it to Yahoo UK but first open the mail and go to the bottom of the screen and click "show headers" and right click and drag to highlight the entire mail and paste it to a new mail addressed to the address bellow. And report all this junk because fools do fall for this junk.

lol they even put the word scheme in the email.
Someone is phishing for information from you, like your yahoo password. don't touch that email. go to the yahoo site and send them the email saying its spam. there is a place ont he contact us or security yahoo site for it.
Most email that people receive is spam. Never respond to those. You didnt' win $$$ or a gift certificate or merchandise. They are phishing for information or to check if your email is real. Trying to unsubscribe to some email makes them know your email is real and they will send oyu more spam.
You also have to think "How did they get my email?" Also be careful if its a bank telling you to update your account, they are trying to take you to a fake site and get you to input your information. Always be careful on the net with emails, links, attachments, people and so on. IF you didn't go to them don't trust them.

Sounds like it could be a spam. Send the email to Yahoo to be sure.

i would just delete it. never. but never. open up. any email that you are suspicious of. leave it closed and remove it right away. could contain a trojan horse. or a virus. or worse. you never know. if it were real they would have more of an effort to contact you........there's no substitute for being safe......
