i have also received a similar email and inconsiderately wrote back sending the information requested.

i just hope none of the people who have replied to the email-including myself are at risk of identity theft.

i have recently been inundated with spam, but the email in question was sent to my inbox, and i wonder if yahoo could/should do better in safeguarding its users!

Hi, I received a mail stating that i won a prize money of Six hundred and fifty thousand, Great Britain Pound Sterlings(£650,000.00) from The Msn/Yahoo Lottery Incorporation for the month of jan 2008. At first I thought its true and later I came to know that its just a fake mail. They will ask for half of the prize money as courier agency fee. Dont believe in such false things which is not true. If u check for the lottry company, u will come to know that it is just a SCAM. So frnds, dont give your any cash or bank details.

I have received a mail from The Msn/Yahho Lottery Incorporation that I have won a prize money for the month of December and told me to contact one courier agency (Fastway courier Service). Let me know these informations are correct or somebody is trying to cheet me.
