Lame spam of the day: Charter flight reservation

July 6, 2012 by Robert 1 Comment

This looks similar to the American Airlines spam, but lamer.  How many people 1) have secretaries (not me) and 2) charter airplanes (again, not me).  I got two versions of this.  One claimed to come from LinkedIn — which would be a major change in their business model.  Neither one had any graphics or formatting.  My anti-virus flagged one of the attachments as a virus but let the other one in.

Version 1:
Sender: LinkedIn (welcome@linkedin.com)
Subject: Charter flight reservation.
Text:
Please confirm your resevration of charter flight.

Your secreatry has reserved a charter flight for 8 persons. We have calcualte a price for rent this trip with a Challenger 605 9H-AFO aircraft. More ifnormation you can get from attached booklet.

Attachment: Details.zip

Version 2:
Sender: FilesTube (filestube@filestube.com)
Other details were the same as #1
