The new Hotmail Mobile, Windows Live Hotmail Mobile, offers a much better desktop-app-like feel. The new service, according to Microsoft, promises a safer, more powerful, and productive e-mail experience, with flexible access via the Web, on a Hotmail mobile phone, or with an e-mail client. Steve Berkowitz, Senior Vice President of Microsoft's Group, said, "We're thrilled to deliver Windows Live Hotmail mobile to the more than 280 million active MSN Hotmail mobile accounts around the world. Windows Live Hotmail represents an extremely compelling end-to-end e-mail experience that makes it easy for customers to get best-of-breed e-mail access across PCs, mobile devices, and the Web." Windows Live Hotmail mobile gives consumers the flexibility to access accounts where ever and when ever they want. Using 'Outlook Connector,' scheduled to be available worldwide later this month in 11 languages, consumers can view and manage their accounts from Outlook for free, with full contact, e-mail, and e-mail folder synchronization.
The reasons for demanding advance fee may vary. The Hotmail Mobile scamsters may claim that the advance fee is for paying legal fees. Many scams involve fake lawyers. So, beware of anyone using @lawyer.com, @justice.com etc free webmail accounts. In some cases, the fees may be asked in the form of insurance. Any lottery prize that is supposedly insured is fake. Another reason given is shipping charges. The scamsters often use brand names like FedEx, UPS & other postal office mails, which give credibility to the spam mail as well as the delivery options. The amount of shipping charges is often stated as more than 500 GBP. Here lies the catch. Real lotteries don't ask you to contact a parcel service to arrange for shipping of a cheque or a winnings certificate that you will have to pay for. Another reason for the Hotmail Mobileadvance fee is wire transfer charges. Here again, don’t be fooled -- real banks don’t charge you several thousand dollars just for money transfer.
The victims are promised a fortune for providing a bank account number to transfer the money to. Then - if they fall for the scam - they are made to part with thousands and sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars before the scamsters finally disappear without trace.
So, before falling for such traps, check out the following facts about ‘real’ lotteries: Firstly, they do not notify winners by email. You cannot win a lottery without first buying a ticket. Secondly, they do not randomly select email addresses to award prizes to. Thirdly, they do not use free email accounts (Yahoo, Hotmail, etc) to communicate with you. Fourthly, they do not tell you to call a mobile phone number. Fifthly, you don’t have to keep the winnings a secret. And lastly, they will never ask a winner to pay any fees to receive a prize. Any courier service, lawyer or bank that a fake lottery may have introduced you to is also fake.

CAUCE India, or the Coalition Against Unsolicited Commercial Email, which was formed in the late 1990s is a non-profit advocacy group, works to reduce the amount of unsolicited commercial email, or spam. But there is no such thing as Anti-Spam Law in India unlike the Can Spam Act, 2003 of US and the Australian Anti Spam Law. The Hotmail Mobile Indian Government needs to go for a strong Anti-Spam Law urgently. The proposed amendment to ITA-2000(information Technology Act – 2000) needs to be done on priority basis to prevent further spamming of internet users. So next time, think before you get scammed.
