Jane - Outlook.com

Post by Yorkshire Lass »

All the scam emails I've had recently seem to be from outlook.com - I'm not 100% sure this is a scam but it looks like one to me:

Hello, We are interested in booking your property for the dates shown: please could you let me know if it's possible to pay in Euros and if so what the equivalent rates would be? Regards

It comes from 'Jane' with an incorrect phone number and no number in respect of the guests and to be honest no one ever asks to pay me in Euros though they have picked a week the house is actually available for a change.
We're all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars

I would reply courteously and see what happens next. The incorrect phone number seems very fishy to me, but I'd probably still send a brief response - and wait for the dodgy attachment or link to turn up in their reply :mrgreen:
