It still amazes me how many of these fake emails there are.
There have been one or two occasions where I "almost" fell for it. The easiest way to see if it is fake is 1. check the return email and 2. on the click on the link hover over the link but don't click on it and see where it is taking you.
Bottom line is if in doubt, call first and never open an attachment that you don't know 100% who sent it to you.
I love the ones that are from banks that I have no account.

So it's simply malware.

I got one yesterday as well, with a zipped attachment. I knew it was fishy because it came to an email address I don't use for Delta purchases, and Delta doesn't email tickets as attachments. Excited me to think about going to HNL though. I've never been.

Delta no longer flies to Toledo
It doesn't use an airport code (TOL)
and no one uses tickets per se anymore.
(of course most of us won't have read that far !)
and there might be someone who wants to go to a Mudhen's game, or a Toledo Rockets game and eat at Tony Pacco's first.

Wow. Where did that come from?
Not everyrhing that's harmful to you or your computer is a SCAM.
And just because it's NOT a SCAM, it does not imply, it's something I want to do. @:-)
