These aren't as lame-looking as most of the spam I write about: they use the right logos, fonts, and typefaces. The giveaways are: 1) Hover over the links and see where they point before clicking (that's the best way to prevent phishing attacks and malware infections from spam). 3) I got a dozen of the Amazon spams.

The most amusing part is that the shipping address is a mail merge field with my email address inserted. I'm sure that will produce some funny results for people with more creative email addresses. Your estimated shipment date is: Friday, September 21, 2012. I got 3 versions of this today. 263 Athens Dr , App. Amazon.com.
