UK Microsoft Jackpot Lottery winner
I’m going to retire. I never thought this day would come, but I won a lottery! I know that soon all of my family and friends and friends of friends will start talking to me again and acknowledge that I’m alive (I miss you mommy!) because of my new found wealth. Though I haven’t found out how to collect yet.
I received an email last night telling me that I won some lottery I never entered. Worse is that I never heard of it. One more worse than that, the email did not come from a “Microsoft.com” address but a “Hotmail.com” address.
Once I took off my retard helmet and put on my propeller beanie hat and geeked out, I checked out the Internet Headers (posted below) I noticed that the retards that spammed used Squirrel Mail from a domain hosting company (http://www.dwhs.net/) which either means the spammer uses their system as a customer or hacked into their system. The domain “rapnewsonline.net” which was used as the Squirrel Mail authenticated username is currently not registered, so if you are interested just head over to GoDaddy (<–shameless referral) and pick it up!
When you decide that you want to investigate your own spam, there are a few easy steps to check out who is filling up your chest-squishy download time with annoying emails, you can view the Internet Headers of the email and find the IP address of the sender and potentially more useful information like the originating domain.
Check out the domain of the sender here: http://www.whois.sc/fakey-fake-domain.com (you might want to replace the fake domain with the one in the headers).
Search for IP address information here: http://www.arin.net/ (in the upper right you put the IP address and click the “Seach WHOIS” button).
If you want to pay some money, you can investigate a lot about the domain listed, if there is one, but signing up for some service that keeps track of lots of information and can give you a geeksfull of it: http://www.dnsstuff.com/
One favor I ask is that if you are able to attain the lottery winnings, float me a couple bucks (I’m a bit short until payday, after that point I will still be short but I’ll have money).

[...] Myself For Now Though the idea does seem like an intriguing one, I would rather respond to the Microsoft UK Lottery or something along those lines, at least until I hear a good reason to send my future self an email [...]
did i win??
Congrats essam, you won! Just go ahead and send me some info and I’ll forward to the right people, info to include: your SSN, credit card numbers, drivers license number, mother’s maiden name… actually, just go ahead and send your wallet to me along with a nice little note about your ATM PIN number.
So sad! I just got this e-mail too! I guess I’ll have to return the Porsche 911 Turbo I just bought
unless another winner out there wants to take over the payments.
Seriously,
Thanks for being here. But it saddens me that these slugs may actually get over on some folks.
well, it definately makes a difference to the ghana/botswana/african prince/princess scam which i seem to have received a few times…
gotta hand to to em for being original…
wonder if anyone is retarded enough to go for it?
(i wonder if they want my bank sort code too….better just give them my NI card and brith certificate just incase…)

bindhu, please do not send any money to the person that sent you this email, it is a lie and not true and fraud and probably a little dishonest too.
plz tel me
what funny about that, is that every one got the same REF:and BATCH: if u will luck inside ………………….
I received a message from the e-mail: micrsoftteam31@yahoo.co.uk
which said that I am the winner of £ 1550952.00 (One Million Five hundred and fifty thousand nine hundred and fifty Two Pounds Sterling) and asked whether it was true or whether it was a joke.
send all my personal data.
I hope that all this is true to exit this crisis economica.
dear sir,
i have recived a mail for winning a microsoft lott .is there any truth or it is just a fraud?
pl.guide & advise
Sadly any lottery that you didn’t sign up for and sends you a winning notification via email has never been legitimate.
Damn, Thought the Brits converted to the EURO, Guess they have all that sterling sitting around with nothing better to do with it. 850,000,000 pounds is really heavy too, bet it would take a heck of a lot of trucks (Lorries to you brits) to deliver, and where would I put all that sterling. I guess I could make a hell of a lot of ear rings. Well, I’ll pass this one up, I can’t afford all the taxes I have to pay already for collecting all that American money I got from Bill Gates Bata cash award.
i just got a email saying i just won 2.5mill and i want to no if its true or not please dont be lieing i really need this money for iam only poor so this would not be o joke to me thanks ticket # 008995727495 on 1/8/09
I’m sorry Antoinette.. you are not the winner. The actual winning ticket number is 008995727496. Better luck next time though.
did i win?
Caroline, without knowing what your ticket number is there’s no way for me to verify if you are indeed the winner.. perhaps you could either post your ticket number online here or just send me the ticket along with a ticket-checking-fee of $500 so that I can certify that you are the winner.
