Scarlet Courier LTD — Fraud/Scam of Winning Microsoft Lottery

Dear Sir/Madam,

From past three days I am receiving mail as "Winner of Microsoft Lottery" . They are taking money through courier services. They have PAN No., Bank Account Number, Name of Bank and Name of person on whom money should transfer. Please track this person and take action against them. As they are imposing terrorist activity in our nation.

For your reference I am disclosing their last email which is as follows:
ATTN: Ketan Kothari
This is to bring to your notice that we have been contacted by someone from India, seeking our payment details to enable him make payment for delivery of your parcel to his address in Mumbai, India.
After receiving this phone calls and mails we have verified the authenticity of the caller and we found out that the caller is NOT a winner from the lottery board.
Please inform us immediately if you have told anyone to contact us or make payment for your parcel delivery, because we do not want anyone laying claims over your prize illegally.
We are aware that cases of double claims like these are caused by the winners disclosing their winnings to people.
You are advised to stop disclosing your winning information to the public to avoid disqualification.
Please download the attached file to find information on how to make payment for the delivery of your parcel because it is ready and scheduled for delivery to your address.
Regards,
Mr Victor Carter
