Silly Spammers

(1/30) > >>

Post-Crisis D:
Spam is annoying but sometimes it can be amusing.

Today, I had one with the subject line "Gourmet Hot Chocolate . . . Ships in 7 Days" and I'm thinking, won't it be cold by then?

I get lots of ones from scammers claiming I need to upgrade my mailbox and click the link and login to upgrade.  Silly spammers.  I run my own mail server so when you claim to be the admin, I know you're not because I'm the admin.  Plus, the links don't go to my server.

What's the silliest spam you've gotten?

I got a spam email telling me how much they enjoyed my book, and asked for permission to feature it on their book blog. I replied that they had my permission to use excerpts, etc, and that I looked forward to seeing their review. They replied asking for $77.

--- Quote ---I do consider
all the ideas you’ve pre-
sented on your post.

They’re really convin-
cing and can certainly work.
Still, the posts are very

brief for novices.
May just you please extend them
a little from next

time? Thanks for the post
