SPAM IN THE WORLD!!!!!!
just entered my mailbox....
i was so stunned at the contents of this
email that during the course of reading it,
i glanced at the top of the page to the
return address to make sure i wasn't given
a practical joke.
i simply cannot describe how i feel about
this email... in fact, i highly doubt ANY
comment could adequately describe the
reaction i received after reading it.
since this is the board with the greatest
spam subject lines... i thought it best to
post about it here.
i'll post the email in full....
don't worry... its not that long (thank god)

judging by the spelling, i'd say we no doubt have a fraudulent e-mail sent out by none other than an ALS graduate!
judging by the execution, only a mind out of Harvard of Yale could produce such an excellent scheme.
-
you should reply to the email and put in all the corrections that should be made....
and yes, that is one of the worst/best spam emails, i've ever seen.
-
one thing i just noticed....the link that was included with the email...sends you directly to citibank.com.....why in the world would a spammer send you to the correct website, if they are trying to get your information?
-
hense the proverbial conundrum i faced....
this person is a moron to the nth degree
