If you receive a lottery scam email sent by a Yahoo! user, then you can forward it to Yahoo!'s abuse department. This will depend on what Yahoo! division it came from...
* If somebody@yahoo.com forward to abuse@yahoo.com
* If somebody@yahoo.co.uk forward to abuse@yahoo.co.uk
* If somebody@yahoo.de forward to abuse@yahoo.de
and so on.

You will need to include the "full headers" so they can double-check the message -- see the haltabuse.org link below for instructions.

You can also use their online reporting form (see link #2 below), however I have always had a very quick response from the abuse email addresses. You won't get a personal response from them, just a form letter, but they WILL close accounts which are being used for lottery scams and other problems.

You should know that odds are, no person at Yahoo will ever read these questions. This is not the place to go for customer service.

See if this link gets you what you want.

In a open forum such as this you'll find a few people "pushing their wares" if you will. My question is ,How did they get your e-mail? Aren't you prompted during sign-up on whether you want your e-mail posted or not?
