I just got this link request to my hotmail account. Assuming it was for www.semguide.com I opened it only to find it was actually a link request to hotmail.com. The idiots hadn’t even bothered to sort out their automation and instead of asking for a link on semguide.com they simply pulled the domain my email address was on, in this case hotmail. Oh, and notice the lovely misspellings and odd grammar.
