This scammer has set up a website in the hope of convincing you that their little scam is real. bsb-electronics.com was registered on 10 March to someone in Zurich. It is an exact copy of this size, http://www.shezyax.net/ which was set up in February and also registered to someone in Zurich. Clearly this is an active scammer or scammers.
You haven’t won anything and neither have I. If you enter your supposed winning id and password, you will be taken to a page where you will be asked for a lot of personal details, including a copy of your passport or other ID. After that, I imagine your “claims agent” will start demanding money from you.
Ignore these scammers.

After filling out his form I can see an agent’s “name” (fake I guess, but email address might be valid, although no matches on search engines) Dr.Boyd Lane (no space after “Dr.”) and email dr.boydlane@hotmail.co.uk and when you click at the “flying balloons” you get another form “Claims Processing Form(CPF) …” where you shall fill in the usually crap Nigerian spammer want from you.

Yeah, same here folks, got an eamil saying I have won 490K and a Land Rover Sports (with an S). Obivious scam. Lots of IP stuff and info in Zurich but it looks like the company itself is based in China. It sure would be nice if this many folks could be driving around in Rovers with 490K in their glovebox. Like my dad always said,
“It’s not the stupid crooks you have to watch out for, it’s the smart ones, like in Goverment, that are the problem.”

Received the exact same email as the OP today.
It was obviously a scam but the icing on the cake for me was this link:
http://203.29.124.130/~ebooksac/processa.php
Because it was not from the original site (bsb-electronics.com) i took a look on . It gave me a name (I assumed the contact details were false so i looked into it a little more)
person: Theo Hajipavlou
address: Com-Cen Pty Ltd
address: 6/87 Reserve Road
address: Artarmon
address: NSW 2064
country: AU
phone: +61 2 436 1889
phone: +61 2 9906 4620
e-mail: theo@comcen.com.au
There were 2 entries of this person that I could find and both were linked to Staines, Middlesex, TW** for 2003 and 2004-6.
Most of the information from the website and whois query etc dont match/ is fake so DO NOT give them your details, unless MR Harold Buckler can give any conclusive proof.

This is the e-mail that I received in my inbox today. Quite naturally, I, too, knew it was a fake. There is no way on God’s green earth that a small company with a microsoft installation code inform you that you are a winner of a prize that is worth &80,000.00 plus another whopping $490,000.00 and they are not affiliated with Microsoft in any way. Give me a break. God help the man that made the first comment. He should posts pics with his big pot of winnings and his brand new Range Rover. Oh, I guess I’ll hold my breathe because that’s not going to happen. LOL!

This company must be booming, as I won $490k + a Range Rover, too. How can a company that produces small electronics afford to give so much away? … and I never entered a contest sponsored by them!!!
I always look for misspelling and poorly constructed sentences as clues for scam operations. BSB Electrical Manufacturing website is full of them, beginning w/ the company header that it is ‘Prefessional’.

This is not a fraud. I just confirmed from relevant sources. Please always ensure you confirm your information before attempting to damage the reputation of a company.

Interesting comment. I should be very rich then as I’ve (apparently) won 5 times over the last two days with different email addresses.
