These always make me laugh, especially considering I have no student loan debt (I was smart and went to the school of hard knocks instead a university). And that this email came from a hotmail.com email was another indicator of it being a load of c**p. Now it would really impress me if they sent an email saying that it was Donald Trump trying to contact me LOL
