Unscrupulous thieves have sent you this email and they are trying to part you from your hard earned cash. They will often ask you to call a premium rate number and keep you holding on whilst you rack up a huge phone bill. They are then paid a large proportion of this phone bill. They may ask you to divulge personal information about yourself or ask for your bank or credit card details. Do not divulge any such information under any circumstances. It is surprising how many innocent victims have been duped by these types of emails. Just remember the thieves who send them are very clever and extremely convincing. I suggest you delete the email and send it into cyberspace, hopefully along with the thieving scumbags who send them.

its a con, do not give them your bank details
well i dint expect Yahoo to go so low to get publicity...that definitely proves my theory that Yahoo is losing popularity at a rapid pace....
Why not just Google Yahoo window Award and see what you get.Prepare to be disappointed.After you do it come back on and tell us what happened,should be interesting.
Well, its just a spam from someone. Dont give your address, bank account no., credit card no., or debit card no.

And report about this mail to Yahoo Customer Service at abuse@yahoo.com

Spam originating from a Yahoo! Mail account (i.e., user@yahoo.com) gets special attention. If you receive spam sent from a Yahoo! Mail account, please forward an unedited copy of the message with full headers to abuse@yahoo.com Since spamming is expressly prohibited in Yahoo!'s Terms of Service, any account caught spamming will be cancelled.
Yahoo sadly cannot do anything about these scams. The messages come from computers which are taken over by hackers and used for this purpose. It is almost impossible to catch these people. The main thing is for us to be careful not to fall for their scams. Don't answer just delete them Good luck and be careful.
