    No, it says your e-mail company did. So either you are automatically entered (by your e-mail company) and must opt out, or this is part of a spoofing scam.

    There was a similar post a couple of days back, also about a 'Yahoo Lottery', but you got redirected to another site where you had to fill in your bank account number. Definately a scam, this.

    Not a couple of days back, i think a day ago lol. You guys need a course on recognizing spam and scam emails so that you dont have to go asking about it all the time :p

    *chuckles* I thought it was a scam, but I didn't want to go telling someone incorrectly, as I didn't know for certain.

    I got the same email a week ago, but the yahoo picture was a paypal picture. Thankfully, they all go to my spam folder.
