Is this a scam? Probably so but FYI if someone see's this.

Yesterday I got this email and thought I'd share. I left the header info showing where he came from if anyone's interested. Also I did some searching and found the guy's website at Cable TV to PC

Hello!

I was searching online for Dish Network customers or potential Dish Network Customers and I came across your email address.

My question is, If I could show you how to save 90% off of your Dish Network bill, with no monthly fee, would you be interested?

Please let me know. Email me or call me.

Sincerely,

Mark

If you reply he's going to try selling you software to watch live TV via the internet.

Don't waste your $$$ buying software, there is a free website which has all the free TV channels listed and available. Watch live online TV channels broadcasting on the Internet.

At first the website looks like it's a satellite service, but yeah after reading into it more it looks like he's trying to piggyback on freely available online content by wrapping an app around it. No, I didn't reply, but given this is the only site I talk about DishNetwork I guess he mined my info from here which means others might get this too.

Just reply to my email and you can pay me to cross this nice bridge I own in Brooklyn, if you cross it enough you can own it. If you dont reply you can cross it for free and dont have to buy it.

Don't reply at all. At a minimum they will probably sell your email to more spammers.
