Warning - Phishing Scam

Watch out for this Phishing email. Got it this morning. If you read it, it is painfully obvious that it is not genuine. First, the title "Problem found on your information". That is not coherent English. Problems found "IN" your information would make sense. Also, the "[New Chrome 472]" is extremely suspicious. That is gibberish.

Finally, the second paragraph is riddled with poor grammar and English. "Recently, We found that some of your information are not complete". Why is the "W" in "We" capitalized? Information is singular. "Therefore, we have limited your account and cannot offer the service to you". That is some really bad English. You'd expect scammers to put skills that they achieved in second grade to work in these emails, but they can't be bothered.

Always read. Always be skeptical.
