That is hilarious. I can't believe they screwed up like that. But there is always someone out there who will fall for it. I mean, if it didn't work, they wouldn't do it, right? You send out a million emails, you will get a few suckers.
You should see some of the ones I get... Like "Your wife prefers your dog’s penis to yours?"... Viagra related... hehe Doh???...
