1. I'll give you a hint. "BRITISH POUNDS STERLINGS" I'll give you another hint. It's "pounds sterling" not "sterlings"
2. Yeah, you've won the right to give your account information to a kid who works for the Russian mafia. You can't legally win a lottery you don't enter. Period.
3. i would say its a scam..they just dont have those things online that are actually legit anymore. but if you dont have to give out a credit card number or some personal information, then i would say give it a try, the worst thing that's gonna happen is you'll lose an email account to spam or something of that nature, you wont lose any actual money.
4. well hopefully your banking info is fabricated or your account will soon be empty.
5. I got one of these and a few others that do not include yahoo. all scams report them to your attorney general and let them investigate. If you try to repply at least mine came back undeliverable those that didn't never responded to my quiestions just wanted personal information=indentity theft. Usually they want you to send some money to guarentee you will do what they ask or they will send you a bogus check tell you how much to keep and send the rest to them. By the time the check bounces and I never heard of on that did not youo are out the whole check plus the money you sent them.
6. It is total cr*p, do not give them any info. Delete it immediately.
7. What a load of c**p
8. its all a hoax....and im supprised that you would actully ask a question like that...seems kind of obvious
9. it is a SCAM. send the info they ask for, so they can steal your identity. no wait, they will not be stealing your identity, you will be giving it to them.
10. Oh, its a scam, obviously. Delete it immediately.
11. Catch you on the beach
