Kudos!!

Normally I don’t take the time to post spam like those listed below because they’re pretty boring. However, since I’ve been getting so many of these lately and the idiots sending them out are obviously seeking some attention, I figured I’d give them some.

The links in these messages usually lead to a website that aims to convince people that they’ve won something. For example, one of them had a headline that said something like “You are the <insert my state of residence here> winner, hoping to give me the impression that I’m the only one in this entire state that has “won.”

The reality of it is that I have won nothing and the same thing goes for everyone else who has received this crap.

The goal of these spammers is to get you to enter some information like your e-mail address, zip code, address, etc. When people enter that information on the webpage, or complete the “offer” that’s often hidden behind these messages the sender of that spam gets paid. That’s because the company that’s behind whatever the webpage is promoting is willing to pay for that information or pay to get someone to complete an “offer.” It’s often considered a “lead” for the company – someone they can potentially sell something to. They pay the spammer for attracting people to the website and reward the spammer when someone follows through by entering in whatever information the website is fishing for. But, there’s a problem.

Without getting too deeply into the mechanics of how these businesses work, it’s strictly prohibited for participants in these programs – in this case the spammers – to send unsolicited e-mail, in other words, spam. The senders of the spam are in violation of the rules that govern how these types of offers are promoted. It’s not the fault of the companies behind these website who are seeking leads for their business, it’s these a-hole spammers that are violating the rules so they can make a quick buck.

The ethics of the companies that create these offers is, I suppose, a matter of personal judgment, but they do have the scent of deception since their claim that you have won something is completely bogus. What they are really doing is trying to bait you into some kind of “offer” which can involve things like applying for a credit card or buying something. You’ll see all the legal info that discloses the details of these “offers” at the bottom of the website page in tiny print that is probably printed using a color that closely matches the background of the page to make it as invisible as possible without crossing the line that will get the FTC after them.

My advice is to simply delete these spam messages (as most people probably do) and not put money in the pockets of these spammers who are breaking the rules by sending spam and annoying thousands – if not millions – of people with their crap.

Greeting from Andreaw Fraser

I must admit that I’ve never seen that name spelled “Andreaw.” How delightfully unique! And the fact that you do not seem able to make up your mind about whether your surname is “Fraser” or “Farser,” makes you all the more charming.

Ah yes, another sad tale of another barrister among the countless hoards of barristers who simply cannot find someone to give millions of dollars to. You would not think that would be a difficult task! But obviously this poor man is desperate since he has resorted to sending out thousands – if not millions – of e-mail messages in search of someone gullible enough to believe this rubbish.

Hey “Andreaw,” crawl back into whatever hole it was that you crawled out of and die will you? Trust me, the world would do just find with one less “barrister” taking up space.

Hello

These Asian bank scams really are getting quite boring, but since I had not yet heard of “Dah Sing Bank,” (not that I recall anyway) I figured I’d post this one up.

Sorry, “Mr.Sung Lee,” but despite your faithfulness and all, I’d rather put this online as a warning to others as opposed to just deleting it. If just one person will see it and decide to steer clear of this scam, it will be well worth it as far as I’m concerned.

Gee, I hope this does not offend you and your impeccable ethics!

Your $1500 Deposit Is Pending.

Isn’t it amazing how they can “pre-approve” me without having any idea who I am?

This stinks of something akin to those “payday loan” outfits that probably charge 50 percent interest or something.

If you need cash, I suspect you’d be better off opening a lemonade stand (even though it’s winter!) than you would be dealing with whomever is behind this spam. You can bet it would be a great deal for them and a not-so-great deal for you!

Kind of ironic that someone would use what appears to be content from the bible for their spam camouflage to send this crap.

During this season many Americans are completely overwhelmed with bills
plus the additional stress of holiday bills. As a result many have been utilizing
a new option called 100 Day Loans who can actually wire you money the same
afternoon. Practically everyone gets approved as a credit-check is not required. Most can get authorized for $1500 and payback doesn’t begin until April 2012.

So here we go again. This one is pretty much the same as the last one – spelling errors and all!

Apparently, this spammer not only has time for his or her daughter now that they are making a fortune from home, they also have time to compose spam and send it out to millions of would-be suckers on the internet. You’d think with all that time, this moron would at least get the spelling right!

Yet another turd in the endless punchbowl that is the internet.

This poorly-written excuse for spam is pushing another make-money-from-home scheme that’s probably a variation on another one that’s been pitched about a billion times.

What amazes me is that this stuff must be working on some people who receive it. They wouldn’t be sending it if it wasn’t making them any money. At least that’s what I’ve always heard regarding spam.

Seriously, if anyone forks over the cash after reading this train wreck of an e-mail message, they should put their computer up for sale and stay off the internet for good.

24 GOOD VIBRATIONS Forex Technique

This one slipped through the GMail spam filter which is usually quite excellent, so this particular spammer either got lucky or has some admirable spamming skills – if you’re another spammer that is!

With the “get rich quick” schemes about as evergreen as it gets, this kind of day trading stuff may never go away unless the whole financial system collapses or something. These days who knows?

With all of these “make money” systems that are supposedly able to rake in big time cash for people, one always has to wonder why these people have to sell their “systems” to others (by spamming no less!). Wouldn’t you think that someone who figured out such a great system would just use it to make all the money they could ever want and not have to pitch their stuff to others?

I can’t help notice that this scammer said he saw “my profile” but does not specifically say what profile. Obviously, that’s because he has no idea where I, or any other recipients of this e-mail have set up publicly-visible profiles.

Although nobody should involve themselves with people sending these kinds of messages, when you see little omissions like the one I mentioned above, it should be all you need to convince you that this message is not what it claims to be.

It’s a shame that there really aren’t “wicked assassins” looking for this guy since he seems pretty deserving of such a fate.
