Lottery Scam - "Microsoft/Outlook Windows & Nokia X2 Dual SIM Phone Microsoft Tablet"
The email messages below, which claim the recipients have won US$500,000 and a Nokia N1 launched by Nokia Microsoft tablet, are lottery scams. The email messages are fakes and were sent by scammers and NOT by Microsoft or Nokia. Remember, there is no Microsoft, Nokia, Hotmail, Outlook, Windows, Google, Android, Gmail, Samsung or AOL lottery or sweepstakes. Every month, thousands of these email messages are sent out by scammers to trick their potential victims into stealing their personal information and sending money.
Remember, never send your personal information to anyone in an email message or send money to someone who contacted you via email message.
