this guy is a total idiot


From: "Marvin Rizzo" <tan_olds>Add sender to Contacts:TO <oooooooo>Attention Craig's list User,

My name is Marvin Rizzo, Chief executive officer of Craigslist. We have recently joined up with Apple for a one-time promotional event today, we are giving away free Apple iPads to randomly selected individuals who have posted an advert on Cl. You have been picked as one of our latest winners for today. We randomly choose numbers to match up with ads on Craig's list and your ad matched with our latest drawing.

We have partnered up with Apple inc to advertise their hottest product yet, the Apple iPad. Once yet again, we are operating this campaign for one-day only. All you need to do is CLICK HERE //small77.com/nKqcf4H6gP to go to our web site made for this promotion and enter your email to get yours for free. Simply make sure you enter your email so we may locate our records to ensure that we have reserved one for you. That's it!

Congrats on winning a free Apple iPad (valued at $800). In case you have any query or concerns, feel free to email me back. However, you should claim your free iPad first to ensure one will be set-aside for you before the deadline ends. We do understand that you may not receive this email until after the deadline, however, we advise you check out the web site and enter your email to see if we still have yours on hold, which we often-times do because others have not claimed theirs in time.

Marvin Rizzo
CEO, C-list

I'm sure many do. I never reply to ads without a local phone # listed.
