The Microsoft Windows lottery has discovered a huge number of double claims due to winners informing close friends relatives and third parties about their winning and also sharing their pin numbers. As a result of this, these friends try to claim the lottery on behalf of the real winners. The Microsoft lottery has reached a decision from headquarters that any double claim discovered by the Lottery Board will result to the canceling of that particular winning, making a loss for both the double claimer and the real winner, as it is taken that the real winner was the informer to the double claimer about the lottery. So you are hereby strongly advised once more to keep your winnings strictly confidential until you claim your prize. Congratulations from the Staffs & Members of the interactive Lotteries board Commission. Our special thanks and gratitude to Bill Gates and his

Associates. We wish you the best of luck as you spend your good fortune in this season.

Note: You have One week from the date of this publication to claim your prize or you may forfeit your winnings. In compliance with the sponsoring bodies’, you are to make a remittance of a part of your won fund, not lower than 5-percent, after receiving your allocation to a charity organisation. Thank you for being part of our commemorative NEW YEAR 2009 Microsoft Online Promotion Anniversary Draws. DO NOT REPLY TO THIS

EMAIL BECAUSE YOU MIGHT NOT BE ATTENDED TO; KINDLY CONTACT YOUR CLAIM AGENT DIRECTLY FOR FURTHER DIRECTIONS?
