Just got the email below. With spelling, punctuation and grammer like this, do they really expect me to follow the instructions?

BTW, My email account is American so I get all sorts of American spam which does not apply to me int he UK like CitiBank stuff!

Could anyone follow it. The people who sent it can't even write in English. Worrying though that some people might give out their details.

This is a scam.
The links point to a fake Citibank server asking for your credit card details. Do not go there!

I need one of those, very badly! I'm a female, and half of my emails every day are for Viagra and offers to, erm..., "enlarge my manhood" though medication and/or patches of some kind. Oy, I must add a spamblocker! :oops:
