the emails that were provided for me , in order to claim my prize will not display the pages, how will i be able to contact an agent ?

Attention!
I received same email last DEcember 26, 2009. I'm a Filipino. For me, I always checked at the website to be sure that the mail sent was possible.
And definitely I found out that this is a BIG BIG SCAM entered at the Philippine Area.

"My Goodness! How could you initiate this kind of doing? Don't you remember that there are many Filipino suffered from typhoon Ondoy? (Ketsana) Sept.26, 2009. "

Instead you help us..., you choose to fool!

I HAVE RECEIVED AN EMAIL THAT I AM THE WINNER OF THE UK MS PROMO. HELD ON DT. 8TH JUNE 2009. I WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THE TRUTH.MY EMAIL desai_gautam@rocketmail.com .

YOU KNOW WHAT-THIS IS BULLS@^%. I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. I WAS REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS OPPUTUNITY FOR IT TO JUST BE A SCAM! MY HEART HURTS RIGHT NOW BECAUSE I THOUGHT ABOUT HOW I COULD DO SO MUCH STUFF FOR MY FAMILY. I GUESS I CAN SAY THANK GOD FOR SITES LIKE THIS ONE. SOMETHING TOLD ME TO COME TO THIS SITE TO SEE IF IT'S A SCAM-AND IT IS..THANKS FOR PUTTING THES BUSTERS OUT THERE...IF SOME ONE FIGURES A WAY TO GET THESE JOKERS, LET'S GET'EM! FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME AT MrJayg20@yahoo.com...THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH...

Anyone who thinks such emails could be real should not be on the web. I just got one and the contact email is a Gmail account! Really people, Microsoft and Google are competitors! These people have NOTHING to do with Microsoft and Microsoft has no responsibility to police them. The basic rule of, "If it seems to good to be true then it probably is", remains valid. There is no one out there waiting to drop large sums of money in your lap. Crooked bankers trying to embezzle abandoned accounts will also not seek you out to assist them in their illegal schemes. Stop believing in the Tooth Fairy and grow up!

Hello Everyone. I have been scammed before and I've tried reporting it to online investigators and I am hoping that the FBI will catch these scammers and punish them to the FULL extent of the law. Everytime I receive these emails it pisses me off to the point where I wish the person was next to me so I could bash their skull open and pull their head off. I know you feel the same way about these low life scums. I don't know how they can live with themselves. Their actions are totally inhumane. I hope they burn in HELL! Be cautious at all times my friends.

I got the same thing from Lisa Roberts at lisa.roberts@cornwall.ac.uk.
