You haven't won a single rupee. The email is not even addressed to you personally is it. Please, don't be naive.

It's a scam, so suggest you just delete the email. You didn't really win anything - this is a very common scam right now. The Yahoo-anything award doesn't exist.

Report this to the isp it comes from, the police like to hear of these and gather a nice little dossier about the (sometimes they get asked about them by people who're going to reply and they can talk them out of it), but don't acknowledge the email or send any kinds of details. I've just had one that is a blatant attempt at identity theft. No one's having my identity!

Damn, Looks like am sharing the lottery win with you as well then, as I got exactly the same email as thousands as others. sob sob.
Oh well, maybe I will win the lottery that I brought tickets for. If you buy a ticket for the lottery you might win it as well.
But if you never brought a lottery ticket you will NEVER EVER win. Cause you have not entered. :o)

What do they say you have won exactly? If you didn't enter a competition then you can't have won - so that will really narrow it down. DO NOT SEND ANY MONEY TO ANYONE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. Contact Yahoo! to see if it is genuine at http://uk.docs.yahoo.com/writeus/suggest.html

scam. please, dont respond. if you win some contest, they wont notify you by email. anything that requests personal information through email, please, PLEASE ignore. they get the personal information, and then steal your identity. its really terrible, and it cant be fixed very easily at all. just delete anything that asks for personal information, they will destroy your everything. thankyou.
