This is nothing but a scam. Lookup Google for Euromilliones and you will get articles on how these guys send mass mailers to people telling them they have won a lottery. They will ask you to furnish all relevant details and then tell you that you need to pay an INSURANCE amount to release the payment. Once you have agreed to pay the Insurance amount they will swindle you and never communicate. This kind of Scam is also called The Nigerian Effect.

This guy became meant to be contained in the U.ok. and because i could no longer flow declare the prize in man or woman, he "presented" to deliver me the verify, for which I had to cord him US$1000 by Western Union, I stated to him, take that out of my winnings and deliver me something. I in no way heard from him because. i wager some human beings fall for this variety of scam and do deliver them funds, and those are the individuals they objective.

I suggest that you email. or go to where it says contact us at the bottom of your yahoo page site. then tell them or send them the email you have received. I have received lots of emails stating that I have won drastic amounts of money...some say yahoo on them and others have a specific business on it ...but they all tell me to send personal info too them to receive my funds.they also tell you to keep quiet about your winnings until you have received your funds...don't believe it ..they are scams. Identity theft and access to your personal bank info is what they are after...
Always go to the source that they say in their mail.....Yahoo will let you know if its a fraud.
If its true then congrats.....but be careful
