Just today I received a new type of scam. At first you will notice that it will not direct you to any fraudulent website but wait check their email address if it really come from Toyota , His email address should have a Toyota domain. Some spelling is wrong. Would you think Toyota a very big company will make such big clerical error.
Email came from TOYOTA 2007 AWARD PROMO….[ kentyus31@mchsi.com ]
