Very nearly got ripped of this morning.

OK, I think I am onto a winner here..... I appear to have been BCC'd into an email that is inviting me to take part in a very lucrative offer. What do you think I should do?

For those of you patting yourselves on the back for spotting grammatical errors and dodgy punctuation in scam emails, I'm afraid to tell you this is entirely intentional.

They do it to focus on, let's say the "more gullible" or the "less well educated". If they don't spot the obvious errors and pay the scammer, that's just the start.....

Do you think so, the language is far too aggressive to be genuine,

Seriously? You clearly have not received a letter from TV licensing. Aggressive in the extreme.
