Let me guess, all you have to do is cash some check and wire the cash somewhere to pay some kind of fee.
Just a new twist to an old scam.

Yes, the lottery organizers are the same ones contracted by Toyota, Home Depot, and many Nigerian princesses, politicians, and businessmen.
Type in the words " Microsoft lottery scam ", or " Toyota lottery Scam ", or " Nigerian Scam " into a Google search box, to read all about the many people who have won hundreds of millions of dollars from such philanthropists.
And, if you get the money you "won", I have lots of Arizona beach front property to sell. And a Bridge in Brooklyn. And the Eiffel Tower. And.......

nope... delete it!!
All spam emails/unsolicited letters and faxes are scams.
As a general rule - ANYTHING involving Western Union/money gram = Scam.
my Advice: Don't deal with anyone from a foreign country or Accept checks from strangers and never use wire/bank transfer services.. you risk losing your $$ and your mind.
Remember, if it sounds too good
to be true, it probably is! NEVER give out your personal information to strangers online! Always be on guard.

It's a scam to bilk you out of your hard-earned money. You can run a search online for any of these things to verify. I typically use Snopes. Here's a link for you: http://www.snopes.com/crime/fraud/lottery.asp.

This is a fraud and tell others also.
This contains virus and if you open the mail it will hijack your computers .
Do not be such greedy otherwise pay the price.

NO IT IS TRUE!!!
And you will collect every dollar but only if you send me a large check first.
So grab that checkbook and get my name spelled right.
