Online Threat Alerts (OTA) - Alerting you to scams and frauds.
There is no "2018 Yahoo Email Draws" or "Yahoo Financial Reward Lottery Promotional Program 2018." Therefore, if you have received fraudulent or fake e-mails like the one below, which claim that you are a winner in such a lottery, please do not follow the instructions in it. This is because the email is a lottery scam. There is no Yahoo Email lottery and the fake email message was sent by cyber-criminals/scammers, and not by Yahoo! Yahoo will never ask their users to send their personal information via an email message. And, sending your personal information to those cyber-criminals will only help them rip you off. Every month, thousands of these email messages are sent out by scammers to trick their potential victims into sending their personal information and money.
For online users who have already been tricked by the fraudulent e-mail, please be careful next time. This is because the cyber-criminals/scammers will contact those online users, using the information they have submitted, in an attempt to scam them.

Hello, last night, I received a message from Yahoo Asia that apparently got $ 5,000,000 and asked me for details. It seemed to be from Yahoo, I said, maybe that's real ...Tonight, I came up with a long email with an anonymous email, and I did not notice it, but as if I had asked for money and threatened that the video was going to be for the Context ... !!I do not know what the video is, and what it says, and whether it's always up to date!
It is a scam, just delete it.
upps!I'm get email like this, and i'm follow to instruction and what is hapened after this?
I received the money today, a beautifull woman came to my door with a suitcase full of cash. we had a great time also.. wake up... there is no free money to get, not in real life, not on the internet. never reply to these c**p
what will I do if I already send some of my details in this email?
They will contact and attempt to trick you into sending money or more information, so just ignore them.
