I just recieved a spam email. One of those money scam things. The grammar and puctuation are terrible.
The thing goes on like this for seven more paragraphs. The grammar and puctuation were amusing because this email is going out to millions of people, supposedly from a bank. You'd think these spammers would at least try to make it look official.
I'm not trying to be a grammar nazi but just skimming through the email I noticed how awful the use of language was.
Post any amusing spam emails you've recieved.
