We all get it. Unbelievable offers from Nigerian princes who want to give you piles of cash, cheap pills to improve your recreational activities & kitchens (believe me, this one's particularly common) So what's the oddest spam you've had recently? A couple of rules (I think they should be obvious) Don't include any links that may have been in the message & don't include email addresses. I'll start with one I just received
From Virgina. Subject:Let's learn each other
Greetings to you Robert I am a pretty, kind, loyal, faithful, caring, well-mannered and purposeful young lady LINK REMOVED I enjoy sun-bathing and being outdoors. I keep track of the political events. I hope to meet a kind, faithful, caring and reliable man whom I can trust. We will support to each other and our love will guide us in life. Drop me a line and we will see where it goes Virginia
Just got another from "fedex" Subject: STEVE, Problem with parcel shipping, ID:00994015
The mail reads Dear Steve,
This is to confirm that one or more of your parcels has been shipped. Shipment Label is attached to this email.
Thank you for choosing FedEx, Terrance Odonnell, Sr. Delivery Agent.
(C) 2014 FedEx. All rights reserved.
So...mmm.... problem? Seems it's been shipped. Haven't a scooby what's been shipped though. I haven't ordered anything with fedex shipping for nearly 2 years & frankly, I wouldn't actually "choose" fedex unless I had a gun pointed at me.
Just a reminder that without the brilliant Big Hands we have moderating here, this is the sort of mess that can happen. So thankyou for keeping this place free of people with weird keyboards selling shiat that nobody wants.
I had a mail from Netflix, where I was told to update my payment information...
The “thing” here is, that I don’t have a Netflix account...
Great! So you did it, right? I mean that's very important. You don't want to miss out.
Just start a new thread on the forum titled "Hey, Netflix!" and include your full name, address, and credit card number. I'm sure they'll get it. Save
I actually wrote them back:
Dear Netflix
Is it inappropriate to mention, that I don’t have a Netflix account, and that you are foolish a-holes and idiots if you really do belive that you can get my money?
I hope your parents are proud, but I doubt!
Best regards *middle finger*
I wrote it in danish, but I should propably have written it with google translate... *eye rolling smiley*
