UPDATE: I thought it was apparent when I posted this thread that I knew it was SPAM - mail. This one was just worse than most I receive and I wanted to have some fun. Evidently, my attempt to post a light-hearted time-killing thread failed for quite a few , even though I included emojis and everything. My bad! Please disregard. And, no, I didn’t ever consider clicking the link and entering my info. 🙂 **************************************************************** I received the following compelling email and need help deciding how to handle it. 🤣 So, do I click the link in this email to straighten this out or not? 😜

I would not click on the link for 2 reasons. 1) The grammar in the email is suspect 2) I don't have any Paypal account. If I did have a Paypal account I would still not click the link but go to my Paypal account and see if I am being billed for something from Dhl Express (DHL?). If I was and I did not want to be then I would contact Dhl Express directly and still not click the link.

No, my first thought was the poor grammar. I have also received about a half dozen of these types of emails in the last month or so. The return address of the sender is always way off. I'd also black out the links so no one else can go there for you.

Of course you should click the link and provide ALL information they ask for because then you will level up to a Nigerian prince either wanting to marry you or give you all of his money. Choose the give me all the money option and report back and I’ll tell you how to get to the next level.

I’m confused why anyone would have taken your question seriously. It was completely obvious to me what you meant. (I have a very big brain though, unlike all you other losers here.) 😂

I got an email the other day from "Steven Mnuchin" and he didn't seem to have much of a grasp of English grammar either. I did appreciate him offering me the millions though.
