Instant Messaging Giveaway

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the a/s/l dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Microsoft is planning on giving away $1000/hr randomly to users of the new MSN messenger. They are going to send instant messages to the winners. I can just see it now, 'You've won $1000 in the MSN Messenger giveaway, just go this website and enter your SS# and credit card info for verification.'" Where's Ed McMahon with the big check when you need him?

    You snide prick, any income over $599.99 requires a W-2 according to IRS reporting rules, so they would have to get your SSN in order for you to claim the prize. I wonder, are all Microsoft employees as ignorant as you? Sad.

    No you dont.
    There's a mac client.

    You do realize, though, that microsoft does have a legal department that would have looked into this.

    Of course you dont. 15 year old lunix nerds know everything, after all.
