Maybe the Lord will buy you one
Scam mail allegedly from Mercedes-Benz, received by me:
Dear Sir/Madam, In a bid to ease the living conditions of our fans/customers all over the world in this dark period of economic crunch. Where many companies are closing and families have lost their homes and means of livelihood.
Mercedes-Benz.de sends you this mail with the aim of giving you the opportunity of becoming a proud owner of the 2009 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class GL550 and EUR300,000:00 (Three Hundred Thousand Euros) by being part of our online quiz competition.
One of the three questions:
Emil Jellinek named a special car made for him after the name of his 10 year old daughter, what was her name?
- FIONA
- BENZ
- MERCEDES
This of course set me to wondering what a 2010 model Fiona might look like. My instinct is to consult Renault, which already has cars named Clio and Mégane and Zoé, to the apparent dismay of young French couples.
Anyway, if you’d like to give away all your personal information in the vain hope of owning a, um, Benz, the contact person named is one Mr. Wolfenstein Schultz. Why he uses a mail server in Japan is beyond me.
