These emails kill me! For the most part, the ...LOL! These emails kill me! For the most part, the dead giveaway for me is the grammatical errors. Any reputable company would have someone proofread their correspondences before sending them out, or at least use the spell checker on the computer! I must admit though, they almost got me with the "You've won a $1000 gift card from the Home Depot!" How do they get the company logo and everything? When you go to the site it seems so legit, but the URL does not have Home Depot in it so that gave me my first clue. The second indication it was a scam was that it asked all my personal information: name, address, phone number, date of birth, etc... But my "duh" moment came when I realized I hadn't entered any kind of contest with the Home Depot! I hope these people don't succeed with these scams. I know they get a lot of elderly people and that is so sad. They use God in their correspondence and fool some poor unsuspecting people. There really should be a way to stop them! Thanks for sharing and trying to warn people. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
