Fun spam from today...
Edited on Wed Jan-02-08 05:05 PM by gmoney
Kind of the usual pitch...

"The last of my money, which no one knows of, is the huge cash deposit
 of Fifty Six Million US Dollars that I have, deposited with a security
 company in BRUSSELLS BELGIUM for safekeeping. I will want you to help me
 collect this deposit and disburse it to some charity organizations and
 to the less privileged.
(snip)
Please send me a mail to indicate if you will assist me in this
 disbursement. I have set aside 30% for you, for your time and patience."


But the fun part is that he provided a JPG of his "identification papers" -- one look at old Fidel here, and I feel I could trust him. Take a close look... LOL

3. Misspelled BRUSSELS, Correct phrase is "identification purposeS"...
Idiots do this. Sorry you got spammed.

We had to "retire" one mailbox because of spam from all over the world.

6. Into each life, some spam must fall...
I'm used to it... and sometimes it's amusing.

I just like how they could have picked any random male model or picture from the interwebs, but they decide to go with Charlton Heston, and flatten his head a bit.

8. I like that phrase...
Edited on Wed Jan-02-08 05:20 PM by Radio_Lady
replaces "rain" which we are having a lot of right now.

If it were falling Spam, I'd probably fry it for dinner or something equally as grotesque.

Happy New Year from Radio Lady Ellen
