I hate to be a wet blanket, but ".5 btc bode [email protected]" looks like a description (of the key file?) ending in an email address, which, obviously will end in .com ... many Windows computers may confuse this to be an old "MS DOS" COM executable file..
if you forward the message/file to me I will take a look.. I'm on a Mac so I'm not worried about your silly virii & trojans.. (although i will still be careful  Roll Eyes  )

After explaining my problem I was pleasantly surprised by the outpouring of ridicule I received from members in the chat room.
One guy who went by the name of "kjwallet" took his time and worked me through my problem, then was kind enough to scam me out of 30 bitcoins. After that event, I made a promise to myself that one day I would take back from the community in full.

If I remember correctly there was a very similar scam/phishing ongoing with alleged btc-e codes not long ago.

I would not be surprised if the same scamming entity is behind this "giveaway".

I believed a lot of guys posted on the "5 Bitcoin Independence Day Raffle !"
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2612378

I just received a PM this morning saying I win it. It says it's a private key. But I found out it is some MS-DOS program, which makes me cautious.

So does everyone received a PM like this? If you do please let me know.

I think the guy named 'legitnick' is a completely scam, so everyboy let's put a negative comment on his trust!

Can anyone tell me what this little MS-DOS program (".5 btc bode [email protected]") is? Is a Trojans, virus or something? Does it put my wallet or private key in danger?
