Dear Valued Customer,
You have a new alert from Google Adwords.

Yours Sincerely,
The Google AdWords Team
I broke the link so no one could click it by removing the http://www part, but notice that "google" is misspelled. If you didn't notice, it's missing the "e" at the end. That's the URL they want you to click.

Warn your friends and family . . . especially the gullible folks.
