Re: help me with the lottery problem

We have over the years advised people on this kind of scam. YES SCAm. This is an internet fraud. I can assure you that there is not lottery whatsover.

This kind of mail go out everyday from this fraudsters, so kindly disregard.

Moreover the bank mentioned does exist and would not have a general email system like YAHOO as an address. The bank is a reputable bank that has mergered with another big bank in the country and would definitely not have any thing to do with this.
