Lots of Spam comes with a Yahoo address.
Basic rule - if you don't know the person or absolutely recognize the company - kill it without reading.

I wish I would win something. :-(
There are many web-sites that educate people about Spam and Scams. We are warned that it easy for an address to be disguised to look like it from someone you know and trust.
I put my Friends and business contacts in my address book and anything else is never opened and marked as spam.
