very simple. if it was something that's on-going from Yahoo, it will be mentioned on their site some where.

Kind of sad nowadays people still believe in free lunch in this world. If it sound too good to be true, then maybe it is. If Yahoo is giving away money, definitely they will make a big fuss out of it rather then keeping it secretive.
