It will be rather unique in some people's routines and activities; on the more common individuals use, the principles will be quite general and generic (albeit name brand products) since accepted methods are hammered out daily with the only variation being improvements and updates in the security software and security products. Really I have not come across any new approaches but the utilities improve while pretty much doing the same things. This will sound silly but it is an example I am going to use anyway (as I am no security expert). If computer viruses start floating down from entrails or rising from crop circles to find their way into our computers, that certainly would be very alien. That is not happening, at least I have not heard of it!

Not a chance. It's a very common scam, and pretty much everyone with an email address has "won" this at least once, usually several times. The problem if you furnish personal details is the possibility of having your identity stolen and/or your bank account emptied. Most of the time this scam just involves them telling you that you need to send a delivery or courier fee so they can deliver your "prize". There is no prize, but if you send the fee, you'll be out that much.

I received a notice that i won a e-mail drawing from 3 different companies saying that i had won there drawing as well , one being Microsoft, i can't tell you at this time if its real or not but i am trying to look into it, my advise to you however is not to give them any info until either they provide you with proof of who they are or you can find out on your own if its for real or not.

it's a scam!!! Forward the email to spam@uce.gov
----------------------------------
To Avoid scams here is what i tell people...
All spam emails/unsolicited phone calls/letters and faxes are scams.
As a general rule - ANYTHING involving Western Union/money gram = Scam.
my Advice: Don't deal with anyone out of state or from a foreign country or Accept or cash checks from strangers and never use wire/bank transfer services.. you risk losing your $$ and your mind.
If you sell stuff online.. Accept Cash or paypal only.
If you buy stuff online.. Use Paypal only.
Remember, if it sounds too good
to be true, it probably is! NEVER(ever) give out your personal information to strangers online or offline! Always be on guard.

A common misconception is that you will have to be a financial and business expert in order to successfully trade binary options. However, this is not true at all. Learn here https://tr.im/UMoIm
Perhaps it’s true when it comes to traditional stocks trading but definitely not true in the case of binaries. You don’t have to be an expert to predict the movement of certain assets.

No - it is a scam. Do NOT reply to it or send any money. These people will just continue to have you send money to them and you'll never receive a dime.
