punctuation, sentences or even a coherent theme. Perhaps, he thinks just
putting the names Microsoft and Diamond is enough.

home... for the rest of your life. Really. Don't ever leave.

Common signs that it is a scam:
-
The recipient "won" without buying a ticket (so where does the
money come from?)
-
"For security reasons" you're not allowed to talk to anyone
about it (especially the police or consumerfraudreporting.org!) - which ought to
be odd since lotteries thrive on publicity!
