Scam Email: Sharon Blinkhorn

If you look at the content of this email I received, you will see it is the very same content and format we've seen before several times on this blog, under different names and emails. It would appear this "template" of a scam email is being used quite frequently lately (I even have an example on this blog where the scammer forgot to fill in the personalized name of the art pieces!)
