If you are in the hotel business you have your own world of spam and phish. This one was forwarded to me by some friends. It's comforting to know that the sender craves "your sense of honesty and sincerity with respect to this enquiry" because, obviously, you would usually tell big fat porkie pies about your availability. Guests. Who needs them. Bah humbug.
Being the sad person that I am, I used an online email account giving made up details in the name of Annie Cheater, to reply. I've posted his reply above. He just needs me to pay for the air fares!
Rest assured this is a scam. Pastor Mark Lewis doesn't exist and neither do his church team.
