Yes ma'am, my email address really is bofa.com@<optionoft's-lastname>.com

No I'm not trying to hack you.

Which in hindsight is also what a hacker would say. I can't win...

On top of it my email address is .me so is very common to when I finish spelling my e-mail, people waiting for .com

Where, of course, 'bofa' is merely short for 'bofetada.'

There are some big brain companies who will block you if their name appears in the email address. Like Discord. You can create an account, with [email protected]. But a seconde later you will get an email that your account got band.

They know their way around IT security! /s
