Junk mail

I was trawling through some digital files and came across this one I saved about nine years ago. It’s a phishing attempt.

What struck me at the time was not only the Anglo-Indian language, but the fact that it’s allegedly from Canada Post (without any branding). To someone (at the time) in The Valley They Call Silicon.

I thought it risible, but the thing about these cheap, crude efforts is that they pay off frequently enough to make them still a thing, even a decade on.

Don't contribute to their profits, people.
