Today's Fun Spam Email

I haven't seen this one before. This one was actually done in HTML format (which I can't reproduce here) and looks pretty slick, but as you can tell from the broken English and other problems, it's just another phishing scheme:

Dear member,
Thank you for continuing to choose USAA for your insurance needs. Because we recently adjusted your policy, you now need updated you online account.


Manage your policy online.

Request ID cards.
Add vehicles or drivers.
File a claim.
View and print your policy documents.
Log on to usaa.com

Thank you,
USAA

We may have initiated this policy change without your knowledge based on information we received from other sources.

The log on link goes to an Australian address, not likely for USAA insurance. And, like the various banking schemes out there, they're blindly sending these out in the hopes that they'll hit an actual customer of USAA.
