Hi Everyone, I just received an e-mail that said that I have won lum sum of $2 million Euro, it said they draw with the participant e-mails, and my e-mail was selected and won the amount. They asked me to provide some personal information so they could send the money. Please someone out there tell me if this is totally a scam or something. Thank you in advance.

It is a scam, do not send any personal information!! Because once you do your identity will be stolen!! Most people are getting these e-mails now!

I get that email all the time. Your best bet is to delete it and forget about it. I asure you it is a scam. I watched program on tv that talked these emails and if you respond they'll ask you for money. And then all your personal information. Just delete it.

Ok Thanks, but isn't there anything that can be done about the senders of these e-mails. I mean not me or not u sending the info. But I guess there are people who will do send it and would be in trouble. So something must be done.

Is this yahoo? there are many scams in yahoo like that, many people got that email couple of times, just make sure you check with the stuff of your email. Because even though they usually send it from the stuff, hackers can do that easily, so please be very careful cause you might get scam and get cyber thievery.

Check out snopes or similar. I have seen people get similar emails in the past and they turned out to be scams, so unfortunately it is more than likely a scam.
