Its a SCAM..
Think about it.. If you won a Lottery... Anywhere in the WORLD..... Don't you think they would fly you out there so, they can have you on TV and whatever else...
Think about it.. Here in the US.. If anyone wins anything even near a million.. Its all over the newspapers and TV...
There probley going to try and steal your identity or after you fill out Payment Processing.. There going to say please send us (about) $5,000 for the taxes and processing fees...
So, I wouldn't do anything but, just ignore them.. Or write back and say.. Send me the money and I'll send you the info back once I received it..
They will never answer you back.. and I would try and call you Internet provider and tell them about it...
Good luck with everything and let us know what happens...

It is a scam to get personal information from you. There are no random drawings that give out cash from yahoo or anywhere else. If you received an e-mail about it, it is not true.

Go to www.excite.com to make one on excite. Just click sign in and then click join now. It's free. Just to let you know it might have some prize give aways but they only do it once a week.

hi, am pretty sure this is another scam..please dont be fooled by this. i believe yahoo messenger is not aware of this..never reply to reveal an information to them nor give cash amount in exchange to deposit to your account the said prize.
