This person terrymartin sends me mail regarding lottery winnings from the UK from China from Nigeria but this is the first saying it was from Microsoft. There are also 3 more other names that are on the same type of mailings with amounts always in the millions (USA) I am so sick of receiving this mail. They have even appealed to me through religion and charity saying that someone is dying and trying to get money out of the country, no family to leave it to, and wanting to give it to someone with a spiritual background. Please, please send these people to jail.

Got E mail to say that won $500.000 and replied and was told would cost $245 to be able to collect cheque from bank.

This is how scam mail looks like:
