Hey People,

The Bible says we should be our brother's keeper, that's why i am here to safeguard you, i don't want anyone losing his/her hard earned money to Bastard Fraudsters that do not have the fear of God in their mind at all.

I joined/registered for Who wants to be a Millionaire online website to play the games online but i joined with my Hotmail, i couldn't use my yahoo email because i had so much junk in it and who knows, i might win some money someday, they might notify me thru email, that's why i didn't use my yahoo.

Anyway, i checked my yahoo email yesterday only to see who wants to be a millionaire's email to me, the first thing that came to my mind was that i gave them my hotmail for registration not yahoo so why are they sending messages to my yahoo well, i checked it out, the subject was "my email account has been nominated to participate in Who wants to be a Millionaire Live at the Studio", you should have seen my happy face, this is what the email said below
