That is exactly what came to my mind.

I still laugh at Paul Hollywood!

They are deliberately like that so the only people that respond are the less literate more trusting type of people.

They don't want to waste time chatting with people who will spot it as a scam part way through and pull out.

ErrolTheDragon · 19/04/2026 16:57

I know the accepted wisdom is that many scams are deliberately poor so that only truly gullible people fall for them, but this one is surely taking it a few steps too far.😂

I would trust the Reverend Goodness with my life.
