I just got a text message asking to call a number and to relay bank information for a bank I've never stepped into. The Message was writton like This sentence , with misspillings , Random Capital Letters, and spaces before punctuation . I'm sure most of the scammers' English is limited, but at least make the letter or text message or email look more professional.
Point is if the letter or email from a bank has typos and errors, it is fake. No big business will send out unprofessional-looking letters or emails.
What you describe does sound like an attempt to trick spam filters. But both Mike and LAMET are correct. Much of the tele-scams and Email scams are from overseas, from non-English-speaking regions and, thankfully, their atrocious spelling and grammar make them stick out like sore thumbs. In fact it's one of the reasons a disproportionate number of victims of these scams tend to be people with limited English-speaking and writing ability themselves.
