Microsoft Lottery Scam

We received this Microsoft Lottery Scam 3 times today. Now we've NEVER heard of anyone winning a lottery 3 times in their life, much less 3x in one day. By the third email it just wasn't very exciting anymore.

Sent by: pasotaco2@charter.net

Why do these people always leave a different contact person other than their own email address. Is it an affiliate scam? We imagine the address listed at the bottom would love the opportunity to explain. NOT going to happen.

Another UK Lottery Scam

Here's another apparent lotto scam. It's pretty amazing that a company we've NEVER heard of has so much money to give away to someone that knows nothing about them. We don't think we'll give them our personal information any time soon.

Subject of the email was: Microsoft® 2007 End of Year Promotion(£500, 00Promotion(£500,000.00GBP).

BMW Scam

Well it's been a good week. We've received about 100 emails this week and we've won enough money to make Bill Gates jealous. This scammer even uses BMW name to try and legitimize their scam. Unfortunately for them...after receiving 100+ of these it would be hard for us to believe it if we actually did win a lottery. I doubt the folks at BMW will be happy about this one.

Lottery Scam of only 500,000 :(

Hip, hip hooray. I'm rich. I think I just won my 45th lottery of the month. Can you believe the luck I'm having. This apparent scam claims my lucky email address was chosen from a large list on international emails. It also claims I've won over $500,000 British pounds. Realistically, these scammers don't have much of a chance since I've won millions in all the other lotteries and bank scams. At this point $500,000 is pocket change.
