NEVER JET HOT

You know, this would almost be a believable story until she went to South Africa. People rip off the elderly all the time, I guess they figure to beat the other evil offspring to the inheritance. Very sad if true. I suspect my parents are going to give anything left to a home for orphaned three-legged mangy dogs, with a separate allotment to the Postal Carrier's Benevolent Dogbite Fund, just to be fair. And why not. Here's that spam; Dear Friend, My name is Mrs Sarah Henderson am 75yrs old of age, i stay in new york city, USA. I am an enterpreneur, I have companies, stocks and shares in various banks in the world. I spent all my life on investments and coporate businesses. I lost my husband and two adult children, in a fatal accident that occured in November 5th 2003. I lived a reckless high society life without God.. I dont give and care about people. later in the year 2004 Febuary i was sent a letter for medical check up, As my personal Doctor confirmed that i had a lung ...

I got this email five years ago. It still haunts me. I feel bad because I did have a wrist-mounted dimensional warp generator, but it got mixed up with some stuff that Teresa was setting out for a garage sale, and you know how that goes... Hello, I'm a time traveler stuck here in 2003. Since nobody here seems to be able to get me what I need (safely here to me), I will have to build a simple time travel circuit to get where I need myself. I am going to need an easy to follow picture diagram for a simple time travel circut, which can be built out of (readily available) parts here in 2003. Please email me any schematics you have. I will pay good money for anything you send me I can use. Or if you have the rechargeable AMD dimensional warp generator wrist watch unit available, and are 100% certain you have a (secure) means of delivering it to me please also reply. Send a separate email to me at: (the guy's email)

Found this at the bottom of a "spam" message. Can I go too? Be also notified that I will no longer be reading my emails or surfing the internet as I have retired completely from the outside world to my ranch, at this moment I have nothing to do with cars, emails and other luxuries

One of my service providers has a "newsletter" feature, they sent me these interesting statistics. I blanked their names out because I like their other services and the people that run it. * Since inception ***** has processed more than $500,000 of sales through the newsletter tool. * Since inception the ***** newsletter tool has launched over 2,600 campaigns and send more than 100,000,000 pieces of email. ...According to my pre-coffee morning calculation, that works out to 1/2 of one cent in sales (much less in profit) per newsletter. Personally, I think even a tiny sliver of my customer's time is worth more that a half a cent. A penny for your thoughts? That's always a good deal, I say that and people give me their two cents worth. Unfortunately what they say sometimes makes no sense at all!

I just got an email from a "Paul Smith" regarding "The Late Dr. Everett's estate" - It instructs to open a PDF attachment. I'm sure everyone here knows not to open an email attachment even from someone they know, unless they had previously arranged and know for sure what's inside. Virus spreaders are always coming up with new technological and psychological tricks. I am ashamed to admit that I almost opened that one, but if I inherited something I'm sure that I would be notified by US certified mail as is the accepted procedure. Besides, with my luck I would have to spent the night in a decrepit haunted mansion as a precondition.

This somehow got through our "spam" filters. I read it three times, my conclusion is that Ed McMahon went to law school at some point. Dear Sir/Madam, I am conducting a standard process Investigation on behalf of our Bank an international banking Conglomerate.

Hardly an hour goes by I don't get some kind of forwarded junk in my email box, a guy I know is notorious about this. A few days ago he sent me something that claimed that if you were being forced at gunpoint to withdraw money from an ATM, punching your PIN with the numbers in reverse order would still dispense the cash and would also summon the police! This had all the earmarks of an urban legend, which I quickly confirmed it was and notified him, against my better judgment (People hate to be called on their BS). Of course now he's irked at me for that. He called me a "wet blanket" to which *I wish* I had replied, "Sometimes it takes a wet blanket to smother the fires of stupidity". He still insists that this reverse pin thing is in effect at some ATM's somewhere. I offered to go to a local ATM and give him 5 to 1 odds on a bet that it would simply say something like "invalid PIN". My plan was to actually punch in my PIN number as usual, very ...

I get soooo tired of spam. Offers to make various body parts larger or smaller. "Make a fortune on ebay" (HA) - Nigerian royalty needing financial partners. poker, porn, (I will forego the obvious pun) Recent spam to our site feedback address starts out "Hello! Thank you for your site. I have found here much useful information." - Now I know that's a lie! There's not a whit of useful information on our site. I guess it's a small inconvenience, and at least it doesn't actually interrupt my day like telemarking, or waste paper the way junk mail does. Maybe if everyone forwarded all of it to their elected representatives...
