It's so crap. www.skypve.com
Very obvious. But I think some people may still believe it.
So be careful!!!

Their fake site provide some correct link to skype.com
but the prize event part can function well.
They ask the prize winner to give 1500 RMB as the prizing fee =.=


Oh I forget to provide one more information

The user who send this message to me is called "系统公告"
which means "System Announcement"

Thanks for the warning.
Can you edit out the link so it is not clickable? Just in case someone hit it by misstake.

Thank you for that information.
Just a suggestion for everyone. Before clicking any links provided in such manner, I advise you visit www.skype.com and see if there really was a promotion setup by Skype. If not - first thing you should be asking: "Why is it not on the website?" And yes look carefully at the links.

IS THERE A DAMN WAY OF COMMUNICATING WITH SKYPE, EVERY TIME I HAVE A LOUSY COMMUNICATION OR CONECTION? THIS A CRIME, BECAUSE IN MANY OCCATIONS, SKYPE HAS ROBBED ME!!!! I HAVE LOOKED EVERYWHERE AND NOTHING... I'VE USED THE SO CALLED "HELP" TO AIR MY COMPLAINTS, PERO I CAN NEVER SEND THE E-MAIL, BECAUSE IT DOESN'T GO WITH THE PRESTABLISHED FORMAT.

Please don't shout ( post in all upper case).
If you have filed a ticket to CS please advise on which date so we can communicate with Skype.
