If spammers and scammer could spell…

If Internet spammers and spammers could invest a little in correct English in their emails, they might get a lot more victims. Could the fact that they don’t mean that they get enough victims anyway? Advertising our condo for rent on the open market for the first time ever, we got one of the infamous Craigslist scam attempts yesterday. Something about this inquiry, “sooth my taste,” I think, piqued by suspicion and in thirty seconds on Google I found the exact same fractured text on many real estate sites:

Please let me know if this unit is still available for rent.
I will be living in this unit with my wife and daughter.
Provide me adequate information on your rent
procedures, and the current situation of
this unit. Is this house furnished? I would prefer it
unfurnished as i intend placing order for my own kind
of furniture that will sooth my taste. Can you
send me a few pictures of the house?.
Treat as urgent pls. +44 70457 46081
Cordial
Zoran.
