Im watching this video because i recive a E-mail from Yahoo! Lottery - You won £800 000! Yahoo!. They ask for my FULLNAME: AMOUNT WON: DATE OF BIRTH: RESIDENTIAL ADDRESS: SEX: MARITAL STATUS: COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: OCCUPATION: COMPANY NAME: TELEPHONE: E.MAIL. And i give them all the info.
Then they send me another one - The following requirements should be sent to their offices for confirmation and final process for payment.

2, Full Names
3, Mailing Address, i.e. a physical address where you want your parcel delivered. {Important}
4, a medium of identification, i.e. either a copy of drivers license or international passport or any other legal means of identification. {Important}
5, Amount Won.
6, Contact Phone Numbers {Important}
7, Country of Origin
8, Present Address.
Please Reply back i dont know what to do i was thinking to send them my ID. And see what happens because i dont think they can make fraud whith just my full name, address,DOB and my ID?
Soo it's most likely fake.
Plus they wouldn't ask for that much information.
Please do not send them anything. I hope someone stopped you from giving too much information. I got dozens of emails asking for the same thing. If you pick up a credit card application, or open a bank account they ask for most of this information. You are being scammed.
