    I received something very similar myself in my Hotmail account… maybe even more legit-looking! It stated I’d won 600,000 British Pounds! The curious thing was I didn’t even get a peep to this effect at my Yahoo account… the very account the prize was being attributed too! XD

    Not me!

  2. amidamaru on November 5th, 2007

    i received a lot of emails like this…hohoho..if it is true I will the richest as Gates.

  3. Rev PC Lalropuia on November 10th, 2007

    I received this kind of offer time to time. Anyway, knowing these are not real I steel love to play with them and respond them as if i am really interested on it. Making money is not easy..using money is easy..believing an offer of huge amount of money is not easy..believing an offer of prayer is most acceptable…

  4. Pumlani on November 17th, 2007

    Me too, I just won the lottery twice in one week and more than 10 times in 3 months!!! I won different lotteries such as Bill Gates!!! This happened after I had problems with spyware Virtumonde Trojan! But I manged to fix it! Surely you can’t win a competition you didn’t enter. This is a scam!

  5. Dr Obiora on November 27th, 2007

    I received a simillar letter saying I won 800,000 British Pounds for November Yahoo Internet Lottery Promotions.

  10. Liene on January 9th, 2008

    Does anyone know what happens if you send them your passport copy?

  11. Jewel Joanna S. Cabardo on January 10th, 2008

    I have actually watched a special feature on the Oprah Winfrey Show about it. The minute I received the email, I large part of me knew this was what the show was talking about especially since they used a country in Africa as a classic bank reference.
    Anyway, I jus checked it out for myself since the information they were asking seemed to be harmless.
    Upon receiving the second notice by email, I knew it really was a fraud. At first I thought of course how could Yahoo and Hotmail know about your whereabouts since you just filled up limited information to have an email account with them. I thought of it as their way of confirming your personal information. I was right, this is a hoax.
    Here is a copy of their second email.

  14. Christopher Wilson on January 17th, 2008

    I got between one and three winning notifications out of four draws one lotto said they had each month, and got winning notices from at least five lottos in the past year. Some had sentence word choices that looked retarded. Do you think they think Interpol can’t find their email addresses and names? They put them on the award notices with phone numbers, if their scam is illegal, police should have no trouble calling them or sending them an email the same day they are noticed or reported.

  15. RAVI PRAKASH SHARMA on January 19th, 2008

    We received a similar mail and were about to fall for it. Luckily happened to search the net for such schemes (scams). In our case the perpetrator went one step ahead and sent an Identification of Card of someone claiming to be yahoo international lottery agent to lend credibility… In fact we made a couple of calls to the given number also……

    how do we go about reporting this sort of thing? the moment i received this i just knew that it was just too good to be true!! but really this kind of people are just sick and they have to be reported to the relevant authorities. this same person mrs rose young was posing as a dying widow earlier wanting to give her wealth to someone who will use it for religious purpose.

  48. Angela on July 17th, 2009

    First, they ask for personal dates: Full name, telephone, ex. Naturaly , if one don’t have nothing for lose, submit dates. After, come other e-mail: it tell that contact other agent. Telephones of agente or Director of remittance uses reals indicatives of United Kingdow or Sudáfrica:: +27 ó +44 70 . Also, it tell, they need drivers license or passport copy for identification. CURIOUS FORWARD THE PROCESS: they don’t require passport again, it is a lie! . Forward the process, the agent orders to fills an formulary: “WIFE TRANSFER”. Until this, all seems real. I gave my dates, and they don’t stole nothing of my account. But, here follows the good: In the authorization of Ministry of Finance or Republic Bank of your country, it demands approval fees of $USD 879.90. I ask to acquaintances, and they says that for money order don’t charge this sum large! Besides if it is real, because they don’t deduce from prize the TAX or approval fees? . In fact, it is swindler’s net good elaborated!

    I’ve recieved 4 email s from a doramorgan101@luckymail.com to say that I had won a Yahoo Internet Lottery ffor 320,000 British Pounds followed by a phone call by someone who couldn’t speak English properly. The first email had graphics etc which made it look genuine. I was stupid enough to repond. and give a scanned passpo. I am now looking at a printed copy of the bank cheque from the Royal Bank of Scotland. I am supposed to contact a local person to pay $5,000 to who will organise a courier to drop off the consignment. Lucky I did some research and realised that these a leeches who are invading honest lives. I agree….MAY GOD PUNISH THEM ALL.

  58. Khmer Lee on October 17th, 2009

    They sent me an email with attachments..at first i was so amazed about it..imagined the 820,000.00 GBP to be claimed in the NedBank of South Africa? The most prominent evidence is the word (eight hundred and twenty British pounds only)

    saat ini sejak pertengahan bulan saya mengalami hal yang sama. dapat e-mail. yang serupa. dan dipertengahanbulan ini lebih dari 10 email dengan alamat berbeda tapi tujuannya sama masuk kealamat e-mail saya. Bahkan dalam kurun tidak lebih satu bulan ada 3 hadiah yang ditujukan buat saya antara lain yahoo promo, bmw promo dan honda promo. yang saya tidak mengerti mengapa mereka bisa menyadap no email saya. kalau memang ada lotere semacam itu. terutama dari yahoo buatlah prosedural sistem yang sekiranya bisa menyempitkan pergerakan orang yang tidak bertanggung jawab.

    When I 1st got one of these emails, I thought my dream had all come true. I was so excited I when out and told my friend and family and I replied to their email. Then they stared to ask for money, ( money I didnt have to start with). I paid the 1st lot of money, thinking I would receive my 1.5 million but no, all I got was excuses and demands for more money. Thats when red flags when up and thats when I talked to my bank manager. He saved me from making a terrible mistake. Thank you Paul.

    How can these people be so evil. You cant player with peoples feelings like this. You build up peoples hopes, then you steal their money and leave them with nothing. That is just down right nasty. I believe in what goes around, comes around and you will get your.
    There must be someone, someplace or something we can go to, to fight these people. Dont tell me to delete them because they keep sending them.
    Thank you for letting me vent feelings on your page.

  76. prakash ganta on March 11th, 2010

    i receved a mail from yahoo / MSN Lottery promotions that i win the amount of GBP 750,000 and the bank name is barclay commercial bank of london.
    so please conform me that mail was true or false.

  77. VICTORIA on March 12th, 2010

    Just want to thank you guys for this..i just receive same email like this,just yesterday..but now i know this is a big joke and scam. so no more replying anymore..

    although ive sent already my contact i mean..name add..etc..we should be careful next time..

  78. Praveen Bhargava on May 1st, 2010

    I myself am dealing these type of lottery winning prizes scheme not one but at least
    20 of them.I am taking all the SPAM EMAILS linked with these lucrative promises to pay 500000 USD or 1000000 USD in one lottery or other.I am replying all of them promptly and with the details they ask for.
    Now when the stage of asking me to pay 500 USD or 2500 GBP comes I without any hitch ask them to deduct it from the winning amount and send me the balance through telegraphic bank wire transfer channel.
    I take it sportingly. Now I am sure in all the 100% cases I am dealing with them (20 cases at present)they will in no case be agree to accept my scheme to first deduct all the expenses /charges etc. at your place and only then after making you satisfied with deduction of all type of expenses out of my winning prize money then the remaining lottory prize money be send/Transfer to my Savings Bank Account at my placethrough telegraphic bank wire transfer channel.
    I am a bit crazy and useing my spare time to go in deep into their dirty network.
    I do not know what is finally stored for me in involving me so deep into it.In few of the present 20 cases after my flat refusal to first pay the charges of 500-2500 USD or GBP no reply is coming from them.
    I ask all the effected persons with this type of luxury imaginative dreams to become BillGates overnight,to fight this bad evil with courage and defeat their goal with the grace of Almighty God.
    REMEMBER
    ONE CAN WIN LOTTERY ONLY BY PURCHASING TICKETS
    NOT BY SITTING ACCROSS THE COMPUTER WINDOW
