To mmatrixx:
It's a scam lottery letter. There is no win. I suggest you read How Nigerian 419 Fraud Syndicates Operate in 419legal's Information and Education section as well as Be Aware and Beware in General Scam & Spam Discussions. While in the Discussions forum, open and read, Website Tips. Unfortunately, you replied to a Nigerian fraud e-scam. This means you are in their spam software system. I hope you have a good spam filter; otherwise, you might consider closing your current email account and opening another one with a different address. If you want to read a similar scam letter for yourself, enter Microsoft Promotion into this site's search bar. You can find the "Search" tab in a menu bar located at the top of each screen page.
