Spammers Can’t Spell
We all know that, but I’ve just had a phishing scam purporting to be from HSBC from an e-mail of hsbc@suport.co.uk.
I was curious about suport.co.uk and whether anybody would actually want such a mispelled domain. They don’t! So if you want it, you can have it!
It just shows how when a domain name appears odd for the company who supposedly sent the e-mail, the message is usually spam!
They can’t write English either, I’ve seen some very quaint statements. I read them just for the laugh. Even my students can usually do better.

There will be British people native English speakers, who wouldnt notice it was spelt wrong. I never ceased to be amazed by the number of people who are unable to do or are unaware of things which I consider basic!

I would agree and I am totally frustrated by all the keyboard mistakes I make when typing, that I have to correct.

Not the only ones….MBNA cant spell either.
Sent me an advertising blub….with a wonderful glaring error right on the front page….
Do I trust them? Do I consider them worthy on my custom?
Should they always run the spell check….
Do they bend the rules etc as they go along?
I am in Spain, its raining, and very very warm…

We needed you as we wondered if gluten-free bread has added calcium!
