Spam emails!
Posted: Wed Jul 16, 2008 7:59 am
Today i looked at my email account and bothered to clean it out for once. Immediately emptied spam folder... then opened the inbox. In there were about 9 spam emails that should have been caught by the filter. One was an ad for a breast enlargement project. There were 2 business proposals and several chain mail things.
After finally tearing myself away from fantasies about having breasts, i decided I'd sit down and write a serious sounding reply to one of the business partnership proposal emails.
I sat doing this for half an hour, played my XBox for a bit then went back and scrapped the entire email. I started from scratch with something along the lines of 'I'm afraid i cannot accept this proposal because I am a fish. Glug glug, ooh what a pretty shipwreck.'
I find some of the titles to spammy emails quite interesting. I particularly like chain letters that have a rather depressing poem... then say 'email this to five people and something good will happen at 11pm tonight'.
Any amusing stories you can share of spam emails and such? there's always one or two that make you laugh.
