SPAM - Lloyds TSB Bank reminder: please update your details! (message ref: 0980619782)

Why do so many SPAMMERS and SCAMMERS waste so much time?

Is it not obvious that something like this would be a no-brainer for the recipient?

As soon as I opened that email, I instantly knew it wasn't for me because it doesn't have my name on it or ANY reference to me!

But, more interestingly, the link is not as it seems; http://online.lloydstsb.co.uk.dlltr.cz/customercare/serverid/cform.jsp?id=3525686696351881531706924583768521152966341

Can you see the difference?

Notice how the first one could easily be assumed as 'real'. But it actually links to online.lloydstsb.co.uk.dlltr.cz

The real destination is: dlltr.cz

No I have not been there and have no intention of going there...!
