Bill Gates Gets A Real Job

Here's another variation on the Nigerian Money Scams received recently...
Supposedly this has come from Microsoft HQ – y'know, as owned by Bill Gates? Except SIR Bill (when was he given a knighthood?) has now been demoted to a humble 'online supervisor'. Oh, how the mighty have fallen!
Further, I've just been told that I've won a BILLION pounds – that's a healthy slice of Microsoft! Thanks, Bill!
