Not From: YAHOO AWARD
[email protected] That's a free e-mail address, not Yahoo, and it sure ain't the lottery calling Do Not Reply-to: YAHOO AWARD <[email protected]> Another free e-mail address, again, not Yahoo To: BCC (Undisclosed Recipients) Date: Tue, May 17, 2011 Signed-by: Yahoo.com Signing by a free e-mail address service means nothing, since anyone in the world can sign up for a free e-mail address. Some people just choose to abuse them, and get their free service cut off. Neither Yahoo, America Online, nor Microsoft has any "lottery." No corporation "collects" e-mail addresses except for newsletters to be sent out, and stuff like that. No corporation runs any lottery, except for those approved by government, and no company sends out e-mail or text messages to "inform winners" that they won something. No one is "selected" every two years as a "winner," and most certainly not for a million quid. NOT FROM YAHOO MAIL LOTTERY www.lottery.co.uk lottery.co.uk is the UK's National Lottery. It has nothing to do with Yahoo whatsoever. 124 Stockport Road, Long sight, Manchester M60 2 DB-United Kingdom Hey, a scammer got the '£' symbol right.
