Thanks for posting this!  When I get suspicious email, or email that I think might be legitimate but also might be bogus, I check the grammar.  Quite often the scam emails are filled with errors in grammar and syntax.  If you read through  through the one posted, you will come  upon a number of errors.   When that happens--hit delete!
