Good day…. My name is MARTIN, From United Sales Service.,LTD Brazil..

We got your contact through our research on web. We have interest in purchasing your products and sincerely hope that we will be favoured with your company terms and conditions, for a long lasting business relationship with your esteemed company.

We request you to provide us with your Company Profile, Updated product Catalog with Sample Pictures and price list. “

This is a simple scam email – the sender is looking for businesses dumb enough to reply to his message – but the entire message screams SCAM in many ways, including:-

• He doesn’t know who he’s sending the message to – just a list of email addresses he purchased
• His ‘From Address’ misspells the word ‘suppliers’
• His return address is different from the sender address
• The reply address is a personal email address not a business one
• biz is a fake domain name
• The grammar is poor, Ltd is an abbreviation used in the United Kingdom and some commonwealth countries – not in Brazil
• He has no idea what products or services we sell
• He has not specified what products or services he is interested in
• The company name is fake

And so on.

It’s just pathetic.

If you have any experiences with phishing scams do let me know, by email.
