Yesterday i received a mail from Yahoo games in which they have mentioned that i have won a prize of $1000 as my account is selected 1 of 10 top winners account .They have given me a link also to click but when i clicks it a window appears in which they asks me to enter payment method.When i selects paypal they displays an error message in which they informs me that i'm not the premium member of the yahoo games and if i want to cash my price then i need to create an yahoo games account for the registration fee is $ 8.75.They also ask me to create an e-gold account but when i tries to create an e-gold account they informs me that is not possible to create an e-gold account for you .I want all of you to help me.Is yahoo games really gives such prizes ? if yes,then how is possible to cash it using paypal ? please help me thanks

hi okakaciuka, junk the e-mail. I received that scam e-mail and it cost me my hundred over dollars worth of e-gold. I still receive such e-mails regularly. No prozes for what i do with it ;)

Exactly my thoughts, too! Please send a copy of that e-mail to Yahoo, it is a scam and don't send any money to the crooks. I have links to thousands of legitimate contests and sweepstakes that will not cost you any money. Please report these scoundrels and help keep the Internet safe! :)
