The age of Spam or Scam

Today it seems I've been selected by 2 mega giants of industry (haha, gag) to respond and get a free cell phone. I hope none of you get this and click on the respond button. I know I won't but there's always someone who uses these online or retail stores who may not be aware their email has been sold or stolen.

Easy tip offs are the poorly worded sentences and silly language. This is likely just the tip of the e scams yet to hit my inbox.


Errors on this one:
you have been won (classic offshore pigeon)
an smart phone (ditto)
Iphone (iPhone)
sidereal (sideral)


And this one:

Ssumsung (Samsung)
but hurry up!! (Oh I feel the need to really do that )
only 'an unlimited number of gifts' - Really? Then I'll take my own sweet time
