YOU HAVE BEEN SCAMMED

I just received this email. Gotta love it. The scammers are getting creative, but still as stupid as ever. Of course, these scammers must still be in business because of common gullibility and ignorance, but come on, do you really think “contactbritishhighcommission03@gmail.com” is a legit email address?? Here’s to reverse psychology and innovation…
