Yeah, there are several red flags about the e-mail.
It's from
cooloffers@prolific.com. I have pretty much any e-mail including "offer" in the sender field marked as Spam.
The links to redeem the offers have cryptic, long website links:

The "confirm" and "unsubscribe" links are to websites I'm not familiar with:
http://visitor.constantcontact.com/c...**721&wl=F
http://ui.constantcontact.com/d.jsp?...n&reason=F
It also doesn't have the conversational style that I've come to expect from these kinds of e-mails. It's VERY difficult to get past the initial negative reaction (assumed or real) when a message is from an unknown entity. You have to almost immediately apologize and assure the viewer that this is not spam and give them a few uncomplicated weblinks.
It's getting hard to run legit ad campaigns to interested parties because of all the spam. I get 200-300 spams a day.
