There is no "Yahoo! 2018/2019 New Year Lottery Draws". Therefore, online users who have received the fraudulent e-mail below or others like it, which claims that they are winners in "Yahoo! 2018/2019 New Year Lottery Draws" are asked not to follow the instructions in it. This is because the email is a lottery scam. The fake email message is being sent by cyber-criminals or lottery scammers, and not by Yahoo!

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.
