Goog's spam filter has had a rough week:
From: SUSAN LOWEWYLDE
To: Benjamin Harris
Subject: i need your assistant* [asterisk in original]
Which one, Susan?
From: Aamira
To: Benjamin Harris
Subject: inheritance for you.
Both Susan and Aamira need the assitant* of grammar check. These two gems led me to check my beloved spam folder to see what Googs caught:
From: Emad Yousef
To: Benjamin Harris
Subject: Hello Dear [Ahh, made me wistful. The "Hello Dear" motif represents the apex of the Spam kitsch art form.]
Hello Dear, [Repetition of "Hello Dear" is very important.]
Greetings to you, I know my message will come to you as a surprise but i want you to know that am contacting you for Friendship and business partnership.
From: DMPXXZENQDKJ [Intriguing! Don't recognize that name.]
To; Benjamin Harris
Subject: hello dear
[The body is in Chinese.]
From: Cyrielle Roseline Anov
To: Benjamin Harris
Subject: Dearest One
Dearest One,
Please permit me to introduce myself to you. My name is Cyrielle Roseline Anov I am 22 years old and a 2nd year University student. I am the only child of late Mr. Harold Francois Anov who was a Real estate agent based in Ivory coast. My mother died when I was yet a kid.
I contacted you in order to seek your assistance to achieve my inherited fund ( US$3 million Dollars)...
...This money was deposited by my Father who was later Killed by my wicked and heartless relatives as a result of jealousy and envy...
"Yet a kid." Ah, poor kid. Ivory "coast" real estate...See, I don't think that's so good, I think that lacks certain indicia of reliability, I think it unlikely that a real estate agent in Ivory "coast" could rack up US$3 million Dollars to leave to his "kid," I think the entire real estate of Ivory "coast" could be had for US$3 million Dollars so I'm skeptical of this one. Sorry about her "wicked and heartless relatives," though. Poor kid.
Ah, the Joy of Spam. Joy to the World.
