Never heard of this before. Sounds like Phishing to me. Don't give them any personal info.

You are NOT a winner. The e-mail you received is from thieves who are trying to steal your money, not from a lottery.
The message is a scam. Do not reply to it, do not give the people any information, and do not send them any money.
Remember, if you didn't enter a lottery, there's no way you can win it.

Its a scam, its not real. Microsoft and yahoo don't do any lotteries. If they did, they would contact you directly probably over the phone or through the mail....not through a 3rd party e-mail.

Bad News , is a scam like the stuff that comes from Africa and UK telling you that they need your help to cash some money and you will get a % but you have to give you personal info and your bank account numbers so they can deposit your money ???? (CLEAN YOUR BANK ACCOUNT) "To good to be true" now you know.!
