Another lame scam attempt

One example of a Phishing scam
It's amusing (to me, anyway), to see such lame scams pretending to originate from a local bank. The e-mail address of the sender isn't even from the same domain, the text of the message is pure garbage,... it would be hilarious if I didn't know that at least one or two folks around here would get tricked.

Please, people, do not fall for these kinds of scams. The warning signs are everywhere. Look up the term "phishing" to find out more about how to recognize the scams, and be aware of the dangers involved. One example is provided by Scamwatch.
