The email message below which claims the recipients are winners in the United Nations Online Promo or UN Lottery is a scam or a fake being sent by lottery scammers to their potential. As a matter of fact, there is no UN Lottery or United Nations Online Promo organized by Yahoo or Hotmail. Therefore, recipients of similar messages claiming they are winners in some so-called United Nations Online Promo or UN Lottery should never respond to the fraudulent email messages with their personal information or financial information, and should never send money to the lottery scammers.
And, do not be fooled by fake "UN Lottery" winning certificates and remember, once you are asked to send personal information or money in order to claim a lottery prize, it is a scam.
