lol this spam by Arienadean2002-06-13 20:04:14
  Spam. by BlurOfSerenity2002-06-13 20:37:18
    I had another 2 which I did report by Arienadean 2002-06-13 21:33:34
that were a more personalized looking spam letter. It wasn't trying to sell something but was trying to get me to set up some account for some people. Supposedly they were in a war situation and wanted to get money out of the country. It sounded like money laundering and made me very uncomfortable. I wasn't sure how they got my name(two emails from two diffrent people claiming to be the same family pleading with me to help them... but I've for years been in disability areas on the web<shrug>). However my name was in capitals in it which is a bit of a give away. So I askec chromatix what he thought of it and he said it was a scam going around the web. So I turned it in to yahoo... and might of also to someplace else.(I don't think I gave it to the electronic crimes division out here though<shrug>)

But yea in one sense I find the spam laughable for presuming I need male products of a personal nature, or want to see p0rn. Other ones are the usual realestate/vehicle sales/financing stuff or get rich quick schemes. One the other day claimed I won something in the subject line then said I could enter a draw and possibly win.(it was for a computer but obviously I have one as I'm online)
