I’m no fool

Here’s spam that I found today: The ’subject’ is: “UPS Delivery Problem NR 73854.” (yes, with a period)
From: Service Manager Ned Merrill  help@ups.com
To:  dswdsgns@netscape.net (not my e-mail address)

Dear customer!
Unfortunately we were not able to deliver the postal package sent on the 25th of December in time
because the recipient’s address is incorrect.
Please print out the invoice copy attached and collect the package at our department.
 (what department?)

United Parcel Service of America. (yes, with a period)

I wasn’t persuaded by that amateurish note about a “postal package” to open the attachment, a zipped file, “UPS_document_Nr28451.zip”
