I urge you to delete these emails once you receive them in order to protect yourselves. It is a Scam and they will only use your account against you. Don’t Reply to these emails in any form whatsoever. This only goes for those who have windows live as an email provider alright? Delete any such email that you receive immediately.

The kicker: These emails are even titled "scam". He may have good intentions, but pointing out the obvious only pisses people off, not help them. Even with the best intentions, if you only piss people off, your intentions don't mean shit.
