What do you think of this?

Hello!

You can find your certificate code in attachment below.

Then you need to open iTunes. Once you verify your account, $50.00 will be credited to your account, so you can start buying music, games, video right away.

iTunes Store.

It sounds legit, but disable your antivirus and run as administrator if you cant get the attachment to work first time.

Seriously!? That's the last thing anyone should ever do! Especially to a dodgy email!
Never open the attachment. Never disable your anti-virus to look at it. Never run as administrator anything you don't trust 110%.

If this is humor, it would be wrong to say I understand it.

How could you possibly think for a second that '[email protected]' might be legit?

No idea. Didn't actual thought people would still entertain the legitimacy of idiotic spam like that, guess I was wrong. However, say the words 'LOLOMG FREE SUTFF FREE STUFF' and everyone's brains shuts down.

Imagine when spammers get really serious. I mean, what if they stop replacing 'z' with an 's' and spell properly? The email recipients have no chance.

Sorry, I forgot the "

" emote at the end of that post.
Though to be honest I didn't think it necessary...
