This was on the 9:00 o'clock news the other night and this works
THIS TOOK TWO PAGES OF THE TUESDAY USA TODAY - IT IS FOR REAL
PLEEEEEEASE READ!!!! it was on the news!
This thing is for real. Rest assured AOL and Intel will follow through with their promises for fear of facing a multimillion-dollar class action suit similar to the one filed by PepsiCo against General Electric not too long ago.
Dear Friends; Please do not take this for a junk letter. Bill Gates sharing his fortune. If you ignore this, You will repent later. Microsoft and AOL are now the largest Internet companies and in an effort to make sure that Internet Explorer remains the most widely used program, Microsoft and AOL are running an e-mail beta test.
When you forward this e-mail to friends, Microsoft can and will track it (If you are a Microsoft Windows user)? For a two weeks time period.
For every person that you forward this e-mail to, Microsoft will pay you $245.00 For every person that you sent it to that forwards it on, Microsoft will pay you $243.00 and ! for every third person that receives it, You will be paid $241.00. Within two weeks, Microsoft will contact you for your address and then send you a check.

I thought this was a scam myself, But two weeks after receiving this e-mail and forwarding it on. Microsoft contacted me for my address and within days, I receive a check for $24, 800.00. You need to respond before the beta testing is over. If anyone can afford this, Bill gates is the man.
It's all marketing expense to him. Please forward this to as many people as possible. You are bound to get at least $10, 000.00. We're not going to help them out with their e-mail beta test without getting a little something for our time. My brother's girlfriend got in on this a few months ago. When I went to visit him for the Baylor /UT game. She showed me her check. It was for the sum of $4, 324.44 and was stamped 'Paid in full'
Like I said before, I know the law, and this is for real.
Intel and AOL are now discussing a merger which would make them the largest Internet company and in an effort make sure that AOL remains the most widely used program, Intel and AOL are running an e-mail beta test.
When you forward this e-mail to friends, Intel can and will track it ( if you are a Microsoft Windows user) for a two week time period.
Try it; What have you got to lose!

No, it does work, my sister's mother told me about it and I did it and hey presto - a cheque appeared 2 weeks later for £24,769!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
All I had to do was send my bank account and sort code details to this friendly nigerian man and then i had to advance them £5000, as they were sending me a cheque that was £5000 more than I won.
I'm just waiting now for it to clear and i'll be ric- wait, i've been scammed.

Surprised at the gullibility of the OP if he thinks it's real. Try drinking some
Its not actually a scam or a chain mail. It is real. I did this in June and i did to my suprise get the address request and then in mid-july i got a cheque for £1215... which cashed. And that was that. So if it is a scam i dont think it quite worked.

I haven't received any silly chain mail for years. People used to send all sorts of crap like this to me until I sent a nice offensive reply to each one and they all stopped.
Now set up a false email like microsoftpayment@gmail.com and email whoever sent that crap to you and ask for their bank details, they seem gullible enough to fall for it
