There were just too many spelling and grammatical errors that readers can spotted at glance. Further more, the email was sending the mass recipients (refer to picture below).
The scam email is sending attention to 'undisclosed recipients' |
There is no free lunch in this world. If one is believing in success without hard work, high chances that they will fall into Internet Scam as such.
