Reply:There is Yahoo all over the world but you should contact Yahoo personally and check with them. I wouldn't rely on anyone here for that answer.

Reply:ITS A SCAM... I look at it many ways but always consider the source... Why would England have someone in the US win anyways? Also if it looks too good to be true then it isnt, most big contests will send you a registered letter or something if you win.... I always spam anything like that , dont even open them because once you do, it just sends your e-mail to other bogus scams... my opinon
Reply:Its a scam, you would have to buy a ticket to win a lottery. If its sounds too good to be true, than it is.
