Yahoo! Lottery Results
Yahoo! Lottery is a free service that does not require you to be a
Yahoo! registered user.

DONT send THEM anything - you're right, it IS fraud.

forward it on to the yahoo team, but first you must -

go to "options" - "mail" - "headers" -
select the FULL header option.

not sure of the address off hand, but you'll find it on the yahoo site.
if you cant find it *eMl me and I'll look it up for you.

PS ...i won too

YA! I just won 1,000,000 British pounds.

And I never even entered a lottery!

You may find that they need the routing and account number in order to transfer the funds to your bank account.
DUHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I believe in little green leprechauns too.

Did you report this as spam when it came through your email? In the US, we'd be able to report this as "phishing" to our local law enforcement and to other organizations but I'm not sure what to do in Great Britain.
