Fun with spam
The Corner News published July 3, 2008 Seeing as how I work for a major corporation you’d think our spam filter on our email would be a little better than it is. (NOT!) So periodically I get an email [SPAM] that’s just plain funny to me and this morning I got one. The one advertising the little blue pills, make her smile and feel good about yourself tonight are all hilarious too, but they all get through our filter about 10 times a day. But this I got this morning just made me chuckle. Here’s the entire email, less phone numbers of course. Note: I didn’t doctor this in anyway, the misspelled words and grammar errors are all theirs.
{Subject} FW: Add dr. to you name
{Body of Email} Bacheelor, MasteerMBA, and Doctoraate diplomas available in the field of your choice that’s right, you can even become a Doctor and receive all the benefits that comes with it!

** No one is turned down
CALL US 24 HOURS A DAY, 7 DAYS A WEEK
For US: (phone numbers)
(And the coup de gras.) “Just leave your NAME & PHONE NO. (with CountryCode)” in the voicemail our staff will get back to you in next few days WHAT?! So I’m supposed to call you and leave our name and phone number on some random voice mail so some strange person can call me back in a few days? Come on man, if you’re going to run an effective scam you can at least have live people answering the phone. I’m just saying, who in their right my would respond to this? OK, that was a rhetorical question but obviously someone is because I just got the same email. (It’s been almost and hour since the first at 9:54 AM) |
