All of these companies are regularly misused for lottery scams. Basically the crooks are using the brand names to try and achieve a higher trust factor.
Trust is a very hard thing to gain online. And as the crooks are not in a position to provide their own trust factor, they use the names of well know companies and public persons to lull potential victims into believing what they are offering is an honest offer or, as in this case lottery company.

For most people who don’t speak French, this e-mail would probably be deleted without much thought.
My French is not all that good, but I did notice the PDF file which was attached to it.
Lo and behold! The creative artists who did this have come up with an unusual twist to the Lottery Scam type of message!
They made a flashy (and trashy) PDF file using a photo of Marc Andressen to promote “his” special lottery.
Occasionally, the boys from Africa do actually think a little bit before they send out there scam e-mails.
