Lottery Scam E-mails

Microsoft Promotion Int. was referenced in unsolicited emails that appear to be fraudulent or bogus. Microsoft Promotion Int. is almost certainly not involved nor likely to approve the use of its name in the e-mails. Scammers often use the names of real lotteries or companies to make their claims seem legitimate. This site contains a large collection of scam and hoax e-mails. Lottery scam emails are those that attempt to scam the recipient into sending money in order to claim lottery winnings in lotteries that were never entered into. If you get an e-mail that is similar to one in our collection, you should ignore it. Do not contact the sender and especially do not give out personal information. NEVER pay any fees of any kind. A legitimate lottery does not ask this. Most of these scammers operate overseas, so they can safely scam you. You may want to visit other pages or sites to learn more.
