I received an email from the Yahoo domain advising that I've won a large amount of money in the Yahoo Internet Lottery. I want to know if this is legitimate before I respond to the email. I can forward the entire thing if needed.

It's a phishing scam, period .You didn’t enter a lottery, and YAHOO isn’t running a lottery. All you are going to win is an empty bank account and more trouble than you ever dreamed of. If you want to bother, forward the fraudulent email to phishing@cc.yahoo-inc.com, spam@uce.gov, and 419.fcd@usss.treas.gov.
