Still more brain-dead spam

Filed under: Spam — codeman38 @ 12:20 pm

Yes, this is actually how I received the messsage; it was sent with a MIME type of text/plain, thus ensuring that I saw the raw source code…

And yes, I know I’m obsessing a lot over spam lately… I just think things like this demonstrate how bad a method of marketing spam really is. Heh.

Your daily dose of absurdist spam…

Filed under: Spam — codeman38 @ 7:38 am

I’m quoting this exactly as I received it. It’s… so messed up.

First off, the headers:

Subject: Valium and Xanax, etc shipped to you fr3e Cody minivan 153 haunches
From: "Riley Crain" <kujnhjl@tut.by>
X-Mailer: apportion laborious kensington
Organization: cleavage 503 gonads

Given the name of his organization, I have to wonder whether he’s hawking Viagra and its ilk as well…

The plain-text portion of the message:

Any food stamp can steal pencils from earring for chess board, but it takes a real cough syrup to tomato behind somnambulist.Jewell and I took minivan about freight train (with power drill beyond, ribbon related to CEO.A few stalactites, and ball bearing about lunatic) to arrive at a state of waif

And the text of the HTML portion:
