I've gotten the Citibank and PayPal one's also. I happen to be with Citibank and PayPal.
But I knew full well, Citibank would never send out a mass e-mail.
The PayPal one looked 'off'.
However, my father printed the Citibank E-mail out and showed it to me when I saw him asking if it was real.
You know, I truly feel bad for a 1st time PC buyer these days. If their PC isn't ruined by a bunch of spyware/scumware then the virus program they never knew they needed to update will let something slip in.
Then they have to deal with SPAM and those well crafted e-mails with links to sites that LOOK quite official. Poor bastards.
On the other hand, I did get 300 minutes of free tanning sessions by helping one of the ladies at a tanning salon get rid of all the spyware and saved her old PC.
I used the last of it 2 weeks ago and now that I need to pay for it again- I think it's too expensive. Especially when ya consider the new 2257 law will destroy the industry.
