Question

Some one called Dr. Raymond Hisashi and Mrs. Tina Akira Told me Im lotto winner of Yahoo! Lotto Org its really

Answer 1

First of all, your question sucks. But I will tell you this, no lottery agency calls people to tell them they have won. They send certified letters. Any lottery notices that you get over the internet are always scams. If they were truely legit, they would send you a certified letter and would not have to ask for your personal info b/c they would already know it. State lotteries require that you claim your prize. They won't tell you that you've won, you have to figure that out yourself. G'day.

Answer 2

Answer 3

There is no such thing as Yahoo lotto.  This is a SCAM.  The below links confirm various email scams hitting the internet. There is also an online form for the reporting of such - (with links for your own country.)

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. Please remember the thieves who send them are very clever and extremely convincing. I suggest you delete the email and send it into cyberspace.

Answer 4

Hey I got one of those too.  I would not trust it either.  I am not going to give out my personal information over the internet to someone I don't know that lives in Thailand.
