    surely to have a messenger account with you would need access to his webmail?

    Its not a verified email address. You can have any email address you want. Secondly, you must be crazy to think that John chow has nothing better to do but to fish for DP accounts.

    Yeah it wasn't the real John chow.I figured this out about 3 minutes after he messaged me. My friend knows john and said his email is john@johnchow. But im stumped how he got unverified or not. Why would scammers use stuff like exp: When you could have an unverified ? i've never see anyone ever do this. Could some one please explain to me how they can still get that name without owning the domain?

    Live doesn't check or sanitize the domain you're registering with during the sign-up process. So with simple js you could edit the registration input boxes, put in something like "cia.gov" and add a custom prefix. Though they send an email to the email address, but you can still use it in services like msn without confirming it.
