Good thing spammers can’t master basic grammar
Got the following charming bit of spam today:
Lloyds TSB Group plc
25 Gresham Street
London EC2V 7HNGreetings,
I discovered a dormant account in my office, as Group finance director
with Lloyds bank London. It will be in my interest to transfer this
fund worth $20,000,000 million dollars in an account offshore. If you
can be a collaborator to this please indicate interest immediately for
us to proceed. Remember this is absolutely confidential. My husband
does not know about this risk taking. My family will be in shambles if
it burst out and i will also be in trouble aswell as lose my precious
job. Your contact phone numbers and name will be necessary for this
effect.Regards and respect,
Cynthia Wood.
Group Finance Director
Lloyds bank London.
If high level directors at my bank wrote like this, I’d be thinking about taking my business elsewhere. Cynthia clearly needs to take a writing class (and a course in introductory logic wouldn’t hurt) as this has to be one of the least convincing variants on this scam that I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen a lot of them.
Sigh.
