This arrived in the e-mail today. It had a PDF attachment named "BOOKING-CI0258BO2..." At first glance I thought it was from Booking dot com, but after reading the first line I knew it was a fake. I didn't touch the attachment, of course. But, beware! They never stop trying to get in the door!

Someone spent a lot of time making that. They could of spent the time at a real job.
 
Got the same email this morning, did you notice that it is a booking for 1 night, but check in 8th and check out 4 days later on 12th, sort of gives it away that something isn't right.
