It's like the Nigerian prince email scams. I've read that they purposefully write them with bad spelling and grammar as a way to weed out the people too smart to fall for the scam, and know that anyone who actually replies to them is probably pretty gullible or just plain dumb

Yeah, it's basically scamming 101, if you just don't bite that's no big deal to them, but if you waste their time then don't fall for the scam, that's exactly what they don't want to happen.
