I haven't seen this version of the scam before - it was sent to links
[AT] pricelessware.org - It seems "links" might inherit from a long lost
relative.

Could this be the missing links we've heard so much about? ;)

I can only suppose the basic 419 isn't sucking in enough saps any more.
In regard to "missing link", I thought most of us here felt that post was
already filled by A. A. Fussy (?)

Seriously, it looks like a scam has finally come to the surface. This
type used to come up via pop-ups, but because of the overwhelming
success of many (free) pop killers, the various companies have now opted
for direct-to-inbox scamming.
