World's laziest phishing letter discovered, If you are this stupid, you deserve it
IT IS A SIGN of the apocalypse when the scammers become so lazy that they don't really bother any more. It is a flashing neon sign of the apocalypse when people fall for the lazy scams, but this is America where education is priority #17 and falling, so they are probably getting rich.

Instead of the usual phishing attacks, you know, "Dear [specific bank] member...." on an email meant to look like (hopefully) your bank, you get the following. It is lazy to the extreme, and the phishers should find a new line of work simply out of shame. If the FBI is called in to find out where the $15K some moron sent to Nigeria went, I would hope they would shoot the caller out of pity. Our gene pool deserves it.

Without further blathering, we present to you the worlds laziest phishing scam. Thanks to reader Peri for the copy.
