WINNING INFORMATION / OUR SERVICES:

Congratulations and a very happy and prosperous year – 2005, from our members of staff. We are ATLAS FINANCIAL SERVICES, the fiducially appointed agent of Dayzers-Nederland and Microsoft Corporation responsible for the processing of winning prizes in the e-mail lottery program. Your e-mail address attached to a single ticket was found as one of the lucky fifty e-mail addresses that emerged to have won €1,000,000.00 (One million Euro only ), each. The information was passed to us by the Lottery Co-ordinator to ensure that they are in contact with the rightful owner of the winning e-mail and web-site addresses.

We write to explain and clarify the mode and chronologue of the services we render to our clients of lottery claim related issues.

Firstly, our ultimate concern is that our clients get their winning prizes as quickly as it is possible. You are therefore required to fill the “Claim Application Form” and return back to this office through fax or e-mail attachment for verification from Dayzers Nederland. After been confirmed as the bonafide winner, a “Release Order” will be issued and you will be invited to sign this document after which a “Beneficiary Award Certificate” will be presented to you. You will also be required to complete the Form B6, where you will have to indicate your preferred mode of payment. Your winning prize being deposited at the Treasury department of the paying bank, will therefore be eventually remitted, to your designated account.

Due to mix-up of certain numbers and names, you are required to keep your winning information confidential until your claim has been processed and winning prize remitted to your nominated account. This is part of our security protocols to avoid abuse of the program by some participants.

Your winning prize is covered by HIGH INSURANCE POLICY PREMIUM, in accordance with Article 342 of the World Gaming Board as amended in the 1996 Constitution. This is to protect the prime winner and mis-appropriation of funds.

Be assured that, in line with our principles of efficiency, transparency and customers` satisfaction, we handle all verification excercises with the highest level of professionalism and discretion to ensure that our clients receive their prizes within the shortest possible time.

For more information, please contact the under-signed directly on +31 616 144 931. We are open between 0600hrs -1500hrsGMT from Mondays through Fridays and on Saturdays from 0600hrs -1100hrs GMT.

Once again, Congratulations.

Best of Regards,

Dr. Dwayne Hallager

Claim Manager.
