I, Segey, have the following thoughts/comments on this suspected fraudulent email message from “Google+ (congratualtions)”:
The primary recipient of this message was keatalantarnzalaz@gmail.com
I and (I presume) thousands of other 'lucky recipients was in the BCC field.
One wonders how many recipients picked up the glaring spelling mistake – congrualtions – not that using Google's name in vain is a good thing either!
By the Way WTF is an 'Optdown'?
