Scam Email: Thomas Morris

This interesting thing to note about the scam below that was forwarded to me is that the scammer got really confused about his faked name. Is he Thomas Morris like in his From field, or Abbot Morris like in his email address, or just "Morris" like how he signed off on his email (who in their right mind would sign their email by just their last name... this scammer is making it easy to spot this as fake).

Here is the email I received this morning:

kathleen-- I and another artist friend received the following email this morning. The only difference was the subject line--each was the  name of a piece we had made...gotten off of our website.

I was suspicious and googled the name and came upon your blog. Thank you for what you are doing to help us all!
