Got this spam today… How are you? I need a favor from you. I need to get a Gamestop Gift Card for my Nephew, Its his birthday but i can't do this now because I'm currently traveling.Can you get it from any store around you? I'll pay back as soon as i am back. Kindly let me know if you can handle this. Clues that it is spam: 1. I don't know this guy.
2. The name (Raymond …) and the email address (evan …) don't match.
3. He doesn't seem to know my name. Interesting variation of the "I'm on vacation and lost my credit card" scam. |
