Microsoft Award Team and Promotion Department Scam
The fake "Microsoft eAward Promotion Department" email below is a scam. Therefore, recipients are asked not to follow the instructions in it. The fake email is a lottery scam being sent by scammers to potential victims. The scammers hope to trick potential victims into contacting them. If contacted, the scammers will ask pontential victims to send them money in order to receive their so-called lottery prize. But, if the money is sent, the scammers will disappear and the potential victims will never receive the prizes they were promised.

The Microsoft Promotion Award Team has discovered a huge number of double claims due to winners informing close friends relatives and third parties about their winnings and also sharing their identification numbers. As a result of this, these friends try to claim the lottery on behalf of the real winners. The Microsoft promotion award committee has reached a decision from the headquarters at the United Kingdom that any double claim discovered by the Lottery Board will result to the disqualification of the winners’ lottery. So you are hereby strongly advised once more to keep your winnings strictly confidential until you claim your prize.
N:B This is not a Lottery, it is a promotion therefore if we discover any abuse or false pretense you will be disqualified, banned and sanction appropriately, hence confidentiality is advised.
Congratulations from the Staffs & Members of the Microsoft interactive promotion Board Commission.
