Per email standards this could be a valid email address - however very unlikely. The main reason this is not a valid email is that "fake" is not a valid TLD. An address "a@com", however could be a valid email.

The main RFC-s are:

  • http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5322
  • http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1035

The full list of them are here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email_address#Standards_documents. The wikipedia page also contains examples with a single TLD.
