This is a scam! There is a generic greeting, a non-trustworthy link, and there are spelling mistakes.
This is not a safe email, because it doesn't give the name of the person doing the email. It makes it look like they don’t want you to know who they are. Overall the odds are too good. If you have a 1-2 chance of getting a million dollars, they would be losing money. Most of times the people lure you in, so they can steal money or your identity.
This is a safe email. It uses your first name and last name, so it is not a generic greeting. Usually scammers will send it to multiple people so it doesn’t use your full name. Also, it doesn’t have a major sense of urgency, which many scams do. Scammers give you a sense of urgency, so you have less time to think about your actions.
No this is not a safe email because there is a generic greeting, something that can be to good to be true, and a sense of urgency. Also it wants you to verify your password and username.
This email is not a scam. The reason for that is because it says that you can come to your local bank you don’t have to email them back or call them. You have to stop by the bank.
