Spam

Spam has moved to a whole new level of ridiculousness. Instead of sending emails advertising products that you are utterly uninterested in, they now send emails that pretend to be from a person to their friend, that have somehow been sent to you by mistake (or perhaps as well). Here's some examples from my gmail account. Because these are pretending to be legit emails, they managed to get past the junkmail filter and get into my inbox. As a result they escaped the violent death that everything in my junkmail folder undergoes once every day or two. Here they are:

A lot of people have had a past of grievances due to their medical conditions- and I think this web site might be the ticket.

Check out the sites if you really want to. I haven't. I think this is really funny. Spammers are constantly trying to find new ways to get past junkmail filters, but you'd still have to be pretty stupid to be taken in by these.

I thought i'd try my hand at writing my own spam email:


Subject: Our email needs are not you.

Hi Akilah,

Jarhead. Really enjoyed the movie. Want to get the book. (It's based on a book.) I think if I was expecting action I would have been disappointed with it, but I went in knowing it was about the characters rather than the action, and so I wasn't. The only problem was I spent the entire movie trying to figure out where I recognised Troy from. Then it hit me - he was Carson (the creepy Air Marshal) in Flightplan last year. Other than that, I thought the start was a bit slow, but it picked up, and drew me in. I can't be bothered giving it a review or anything, so I'll just say its gets a

But yeah, I want to get the book that it's based on. Apparently it is "destined to become a modern classic". Sounds promising.
