SEAT AUTO E-MAIL PROMOTION 2007

Another official looking lotto scam. It has the same inconsistencies as Lottery Scam Example #5:

The usage of a free e-mail address. We believe Seat has enough money to afford their own domain and e-mail accounts.
A different e-mail address is used to receive replies.
None of the e-mail addresses mentioned in this e-mail originates from the domain of the organisation that supposedly sent the e-mail, which makes it quite clear that they were not the real sender of the e-mail.
Poor English.
