Microsoft and AOL are now the largest Internet companies and in an effort to make sure Internet Explorer remains the most widely used program, Microsoft and AOL are running an e-mail beta test.
Your email address as indicated was drawn and attached to ticket number 3895337498648 with serial numbers MCST/9080648302/648 and drew the lucky numbers 14-21-25-39-40-47(20) which subsequently won you £250,000.00 (Two Hundred and fifty Thousand Great Britain Pounds) already issued in a cheque as one of the 10 jackpot winners in this draw.
