Lottery Scam E-mails

Yahoo Splash Promotions and Yahoo Splash Awards were referenced in unsolicited emails such as the one below that appear to be fraudulent or bogus.  Our website contains a large collection of  scam and hoax e-mails.   Lottery scam emails are those that attempt to scam the recipient into sending money in order to claim lottery winnings in lotteries that were never entered into.  If you get a similar e-mail, you should ignore it.  Do not contact the sender and especially do not give out personal information.  NEVER pay any fees of any kind.  A legitimate lottery does not ask this.  Most of these scammers operate overseas, so they can safely scam you. You may want to visit other pages or sites to learn more.
