Examples of the "Nigerian scam" that flood my email box everyday.

Question:

1 Why would the Microsoft Corporation run a lottery?

2 Why would the Microsoft Corporation, based in the USA, run that lottery from the Netherlands?

Answer: They wouldn't.

The following is a scam, I am sure that Microsoft will be trying to catch the perpetrators to put a stop to their good name being besmirched in this way.
