A new departure in spam viruses?

Am definitely not opening the attached zip file, but I suppose the author has got to have points for originality, if not morals, or spelling.

Greating Friend,

Your new book has brought a lot of excitement to our editorial staff.
It's certainly this year's best in its genre. You seem to never going to
quit surprising us.
We have made a contract with you and guarantee that the first edition
will total at least 10 million copies.

Enclosed is the approved and edited copy of your amazing book. Thank
you for this paragon of beauty.

Please get in touch with us at your earliest convenience.

See you soon

10 million copies? So it's not as good as Star Wars Incredible Cross Sections, then? ;-)

(DK were rumoured to have printed 12 million copies of this, 99.something% of which then had to be pulped.)

Ah, but if it had been a paragon of amazing beauty like mine, they'd have needed a second edition!

... if that's true, that was really very silly of them.
