Question

tell me whether there is any yahoo lottery stuff because i was told i won 2 000000 gbp may 2008

Answer 1

Yahoo! is an American company.  They have never operated a lottery, but if they did, why would they pay out in Sterling as opposed to US Dollars?

Sorry, but all you got was a common Internet scam.  Yahoo! don't give away 2 million pounds (which is about 4 million dollars) to random people for no reason.  Why on earth would they?

Answer 3

Easy answer.  Did you play?  You cant win if you didnt play anything.  I get those trash E-Mails all the time.  Plus you wouldnt get the answer via E-Mail anyways.

Answer 4

NO!  Don't click on those.  You can't win money on the internet....doesn't happen.

Answer 5

Not that I know of.  If it was one of those ads that you see on the page then I wouldn't trust it.  Even if it was an e-mail, I wouldn't trust it.  You could try though and see what happens, that is if you want to risk your personal information.
