There is no Microsoft Search Lotto Promotion. Therefore, recipients of email messages which claim that they are winners in the same promotion or lottery should delete the email messages and should not follow the instructions in them. This is because the email messages are fakes being sent by lottery scammers, who are attempting to trick their potential victims into sending them their personal information and money in order to receive some so-called lottery prize.
