Scam Email%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;From:"Yahoo Microsoft Awarded Promo"?
This is a SCAM. The below links confirm various email scams hitting the internet, including the famous Yahoo/MSN lottery scams. There is also an online form for the reporting of such. (with links for your own country.) This site also gives excellent advice on what steps you can take to achieve a spam free inbox :

Unscrupulous thieves have sent you this email and they are trying to part you from your hard earned cash. They will often ask you to call a premium rate number and keep you holding on whilst you rack up a huge phone bill. They are then paid a large proportion of this phone bill. They may ask you to divulge personal information about yourself or ask for your bank or credit card details. Do not divulge any such information under any circumstances. It is surprising how many innocent victims have been duped by these types of emails. Please remember the thieves who send them are very clever and extremely convincing. I suggest you delete the email and send it into cyberspace, hopefully along with the thieving scumbags who send them.

Reply:Oh boy, this is a scam of the first degree. Steve Ballmer is president of Microsoft, so how would he be the Online coordinator for Microsoft Yahoo? There is NO such thing. Yet! May never be, either. This is a big scam. It is, of course, spam email and you really shouldn't have opened it. The last one I saw was from David Frank, and yours is from Frank David. Guess what? Neither one exists.


Trash this one!
Reply:That certainly is a scam. All the phishers want is your personal information. Don't give it to them at all!!!! You'll risk identity theft and financial ruin. Turn around and have that fraud message spammed straight into oblivion ASAP. You'll never get anything out of this "bogus" lottery.
Reply:it's a scam email...just delete it. if you give out all of the information they require...they could probably get a bank account in YOUR name!
Reply:Never give out you personal details to any thing.
