Oh man. This one struck me as odd!

Click for full size
Firefox
Click for full size
IE6
Came across this email in my Yahoo inbox (in Firefox). With all the hideous typos I thought they were either very stupid or just had no grasp of the English language.

Interesting enough it displays normal in IE.

Anyhow that link in the email is actually an image but I'm not able to see where it points as nothing displays in the status bar. I did not click the link - just canned it and reported it to Yahoo. Also I don't use that bank (assuming it's a bank).

My idea of equal rights? Hey it's just as easy for a woman to put the toilet seat down as it is for a man to put the toilet seat up.

I guess it's one way to fool the SPAM filters.

Yet another example how badly HTML code compiles in IE. YES all the non-HTML standard of IE actually compiles a crappy code perfectly.

Hey, I got that one today. I didn't receive any phish emails before about 4 days ago. Since then I have received over 30 on 3 different email accounts. Many of them paypal scams, rest bank scams.

What the? That's really weird...

I really wanted to see this and look at the source...and so I went to check one of my own Yahoo inboxes. Sure enough there it was. Very cute. :P
