Just recieved an email purporting to be from Amazon.co.uk
It says they are awarding me a gift card...
My Norton thingy (like the technical terms) is screaming things about Trojans.
Also the wording of the email is to put it mildly eccentric.
Eg
Greetings, hope you have a great day !

PS I thought of correcting it and sending it back and charging them a fee for the service.
