Looks like it's been created to hit a lot of accounts...a big scam here. I love how there are tons of spelling errors and major capitalization problems among other things. If they are attempting to scam the world, can't they give the thing a quick proofread beforehand?

I like the use of the word congestion. It sounds funny. I got this message. It is probably coming out of Nigeria or something.
