Almost Believable

I just received this email today from "Sandra Clark, CEO of Craigslist". It is strange that the email address is michelinardqd@hotmail.com. I guess she sent it from her 'incognito' address so I can't stalk her at work. Ok, I can buy that.

Please do not click on the link she lists. I will not be responsible for any harm that could be done to you or your computer!


"Attention Jay Morse,



My name is Sandra Clark, Chief executive officer of Craigslist. We've recently joined up with Apple mackintosh for a one-time promotional event today, we are giving away free Apple MacBooks to randomly selected individuals who have submitted an advert on Craig's list. You have been picked as one of our latest winners for today. We randomly choose numbers to match up with ads on C-list and your advertisement matched with our latest drawing.



We now have partnered up with Apple inc to promote their most popular product yet, the Apple MacBook. Once again, we have been operating this promotion for one-day only. All you need to do is CLICK HERE to go to our web site made for this promotion and type in your email to get yours for free. Just make sure you enter your email therefore we can locate our records to make certain that we have reserved one for you. That's it!



Congratulations on winning a free Apple MacBook (valued at $1299). If you have any question or concerns, feel free to email me back. However, you need to claim your free MacBook 1st to guarantee one will be set-aside for you before the deadline ends. We do understand that you may possibly not receive this e-mail until after the deadline, however, we advise you check out the site and enter your email to see if we still have got yours on hold, which we often-times do as a result others haven't claimed theirs on time.



Sandra Clark



CEO, Craigslist"

I highlighted in bold the typos & mistakes I found. Can you find others?

She almost had me. If she would have spelled Macintosh correctly, I may have fell for it. Yeah, right!

What is it with these scammers? If they could only spell correctly they may get more suckers.
Nice Try!
