Since we're all children of the Internet, we can probably spot spam emails a mile away, even if a stringent list of personal filters and automatic flaggers have already marked it as such. Even so, these types of messages are still so commonplace, they must work for scamming people or getting idiots to click on unsolicited email. Post your favourite spam emails in this thread, be they weird, creepy or just plan dumb. I recently got added as an email alias for a bunch of old coworkers and the sheer amount of spam that these people receive is unbelieveable. Got these two doozies today. quote:I have a news story you probably don't know about since it's been censored. Hillary raped Cathy Obrien as a child! Just Google "Hillary Raped Cathy Obrien" and you'll discover the truth! This one reads like your crazy uncle on Facebook.  quote:Cheers. You have been chosen among the brethren to serve humanity, get back to me for more details. Lady Patricia Knewl from Canada. I guess I'm part of a cult now...  Please remove clickable links where possible, we don't want anybody accidentally getting phished due to an errant URL.

I always liked the old "I send you this file in order to have your advice" e-mails. I often get these weird e-mails that I think must be first typed up by someone who doesn't speak English, and then a program changes around some of the adjectives so that they don't get flagged as spam for duplicate messages, or something? But they read like this: quote:I'm with Human Resources department at North Post. Your profile and contact details were received from a job website. And another: quote:About the company Advance Quip NZ is a fast growing supplier of specialized financing, project management, equipment trading, and asset services. The company is looking for a experienced manager based in U.S.. I remember when I was thirteen or so I downloaded something very malicious to my parents' computer because a mysterious e-mail from a sultry seductress said she could get me into porn and I just had to open the file to find out more.
