Lottery Scam: Yahoo Awards Center - Yahoo UK & Ireland
- 1-12-2010
- Categorized in: Lottery Scam, Most Commented
Updated: Latest updated scam, see attachment.
Hot Scam Specifications (old):
Scam Type: 419 Scam (Lottery Scam)
Fake Names: Dr (Mrs) Edith Barth, Rev. Albert Time
Offer Type: Lottery Winnings
Transfer Amount: 84,500 GBP
Storyline: You won a lottery which you did not join
Scammer Location: "Appears" to be UK
Scammer Email: Walla.com, Hotmail.com
We thought we had the same scam mail somewhere in our categories, but anyway this is the version in recent month as requested by some of our visitors.
Some more facts:
1) Yahoo Awards Center is fake, so are the addresses.
2) Walla.com appears to be a free email provider. The site seems to be in Hebrew. We can't read, but we can guess the language with some accuracy based on years on the web, e.g. we know when we see Tamil, Chinese, Russian and Japanese words.
3) erm... there is no need to find "Exact matching" Yahoo! Awards Center email to confirm that they are scams. None of them, in whatever variations, are real.
This is a scam that has been around for ages, and scammers are still sending out new scams every now and then. Please check out the attachment for the latest scam dated 11 Jan 2010. We are not sure why, but many scam mails are sent with attachment these days.
For more information about fake Yahoo! lottery, please see our Yahoo! Awards Center Lottery Scam article here.

Why do people even buy into these scams - winning contests they never entered, believing some dying Christian lady in Aferica is going to give them millions if they in turn give her their bank account number. Then there's always a business poposal from Mr. Sing High Sing Low, urgent Inheritence messages from Barrister & Barrister concerning non existent relatives and lasty penis enhancements from Tiffany Lane, so you will never be embarrassed again!!!!!!
