Re: Funny spam
Hmmm.....
Emails containing nothing but random words.....
Sounds like every email I have ever sent whilst drunk!
Seriously though, I can't contribute to this thread as I never get any spam. I feel very left out.

I know what you mean - what I do get is deleted without reading it, so I can only guess at the content, from the title......

Re: Funny spam
This one amused me somewhat - a spam with some random words inserted.

Re: Funny spam
Are they random words or are they merely a product of really bad translation?

Wierd, because they make the spam really annoying to read and hence very likely to be binned
