:cussing: Sorry that you have been scammed.
Several clues that will tell you that it is a scam:
- Picked thru a computer ballet system or email lottery
- Contact you claim agent
- Prize is in British Pounds
- out of the country phone number
- Any time they mention a Batch number or your Lucky numbers
- This particular one says it is from Microsoft but the agent uses gmail :laughing:

It's always better to ask here than to respond with your information.
 
I get about 10 - 15 of those a week. What I like is that they are getting really creative lately. It just goes to show that even scammers have a sense of humor too! :crazytongue:

I have been thinking about starting a thread with copies of some of the more creative ones. It is always worth a good chuckle to read these in the morning! :crazytongue: :crazytongue:

Just ask Abhul MacIntosh (who has 2nd grade writting skills) in Hong Kong who is running the Msn lottery out of England with a Nigerian address! :laughing:
