What takes place in the following adress 124 stockport road longsight,manchester,m60 2DB united kingdom

Answer 1

This address is used frequently in email scams.If you have recieved an an email, do not respond, delete it and forget about it. You have not won any prize/ lottery etc.

Answer 2

This question has been asked already by lots of people. It is a spoof company claiming to be Yahoo and offering a prize. It isn't the real Yahoo, and I doubt there is any prize.

If you type that address in to Google, pages and pages of complaints about it come up, so you are not the only one to have been sent the dodgy email.

I'm not sure of the ins and outs of the scam, but they usually ask you to phone a premium rate phone line or to send them a cheque so they can courier the prize to you. Once they have got your money, you often don't hear from them, and if you do, the prize they send to you is only worth a few pence.

I would just delete the email or report it to Yahoo as spam, but if you aren't happy to do that, pass it on to Trading Standards at your local council as they keep a file on things like this.
