Answer 4

This is a SCAM. The below links confirm various email scams hitting the internet, including the famous Yahoo/MSN lottery scams and how to report them :

http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/or...

Unscrupulous thieves have sent you this email and they are trying to part you from your hard earned cash. They will often ask you to call a premium rate number and keep you holding on whilst you rack up a huge phone bill. They are then paid a large proportion of this phone bill. They may ask you to divulge personal information about yourself or ask for your bank or credit card details. Do not divulge any such information under any circumstances. It is surprising how many innocent victims have been duped by these types of emails. Just remember the thieves who send them are very clever and extremely convincing. I suggest you delete the email and send it into cyberspace, hopefully along with the thieving scumbags who send them.

Answer 5

Its fake.

I get things like "Youve won a million pounds" or something.

Have you ever seen the real hustle, they say "If its too good to be true, then it probably is" which is a good saying to go by.

Answer 6

It HAS to be true. It's on teh internets.

Please don't procreate.

THanks,

The World

Answer 7

Having been scambaiting for 4-5 years now can definately say it's a fake. Remember if you're not in it you can't win it etc.

Answer 8

You will not see any of this money. It's probably a scam. If it's to good to be true it probably is.
