I just got this through my website contact form:

Message Body:
Hey Yall
I am coming to stay a month in my [One of my room names] Room.
See you on Wednesday!

Even the "Yall" put in there since I'm in Arkansas and we use
that term, sort of. We write it y'all. Obviously wanting me to
write back about her not being booked. I'm not biting!

I think I have answered similar in years past and the reply came
as an attachment I was expected to open, no thanks.

Do you know how many of these I get all the time? Please fake
ones trying to get me to click on a link for BK.
Things like:
Dear Hotel Reservations,
As no rooms are displayed as available online, I am writing to
ask whether availability may appear soon.
Thank you for your quick support,
Alfreda
We have Alphabet handling the email in the background. We've
flagged so many of these, that now, they just go directly to
spam.

I get those fake "booking" emails as well and have never used
the services of "booking" so easy to spot as fake. Our host
doesn't put much effort into blocking junk emails, so a constant
battle blocking and writing rules.
