1 Million Lottery!!

I got this email yesterday from so called 'Microsoft Corporation Lottery'. It's really show that this email a scam and trying to confuse readers to 'contribute' to their organization. If anyone of you have received this kind of email..ignored it. These e-mail messages are intended to start a dialogue with people in order to convince them to hand over money or personal information or to click dangerous links on the Web. Its most common form is an e-mail message that claims that you have won a large sum of money, or that a person will pay you a large sum of money for little or no work on your part. And sometime this 'scam' telling people that the money will be transferred in stages basis as they afraid the money will go to the wrong person. This statement make us believe they are 'real'. Further, they will asked some administration fees, tax fees and etc to help them to make speedy action to transferred the money to your bank account. Crazy...!!

Anyway, we can assist Microsoft Corporation to stop this kind of crime by making a report to the local authority and copy the crime report and email to
lotfraud@microsoft.com

  7. Ah, buhung tu, jangan percaya... Kalau mau tinguk samada email tu pishing atau tidak, kalau di gmail, ko turn email tu p html standard, then ko boleh lihat source code dia, apa program dia guna untuk hantar email dan sebagainya...

    Dia guna server lain, cuma dia pass guna email orang lain untuk menghantar email, seolah-olah email itu adalh milik mikrosoft..

    Saya kadang-kadang menerima email macam ni, mereka tu adalah scam.. jahat tu.. saya pernah kena...
