I got 8 of these at 2 different email addresses, always a sign of spam. Subject: Please confirm your US Airways online registration. Depart date: 4/5/2012. The pitch is similar to the American Airlines ticket scam but not as well done. This site says the links lead to malware. Confirmation code: 768404. Flight 5232.

Text: INTRODUCING UPGRADED ADOBE ACROBAT READER 2012. Copyright 2012 Adobe Systems Incorporated. I got two copies. So I'm assuming this is malware.

In another 2013 study conducted by Blackbaud found that “response and click through rates in nonprofit email campaigns declined by 16% and 18.7%, from 2012.” This means that email campaigns lacked creativity, personalization, and users felt like they were receiving a spammed message, not a message that was sent specifically for them.
