BEWARE!! SCAMS - MICROSOFT - COCA COLA

These three days, I have been getting two scams in my hotmail. One is from Microsoft, another is from Coca Cola, but do not get me wrong. Those emails are not origin from the two world leading company, like I mentioned, it's scams!!

Some bad people trying to use this two company name to "fish" some innocent people. Both emails contents are similar, they email you and saying that your email address is lucky to be drawed by them and you can get a large amount of money prizes. Then they will required you to send your personal details to them so that the $$ will transfer into your bank account.

When I read the first email which they called themselves as Microsoft Online Team and even using the email address, microsoft@microsoft.com to send the email to me. Without thinking twice I send a email to the REAL Microsoft asking them about the scams. Surprisingly, I send the email at night and the other day morning, I already get their reply telling me that email is an email hoaxes. This happened on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Now, I mean 15 minutes ago, I checked my Hotmail and got another scams from FAKE Coca Cola about same things also and required me to give my full personal details to get the $$. While I going to report to the REAL Coca Cola website, surprise me again! They already have a lists of this kind of rumors and email hoaxes reported to them. You can read from below link.
