Weird Spam

[Jeff Westover]

Hi guys,

I just got home from the cruise -- **so glad to be off that rockin' boat!** -- and I'm digging through email. I'm noticing a lot of weird spam. These emails are random and the "from" are spoofed email addresses from people on these forums.

Is anyone else getting this? Please let me know. I don't think we've got a problem but thought I'd check to see if anyone else has noticed anything weird.

thanks,
Jeff

Spam...Spam...Spam...Spam...Spam...Spam...Spam...Spam...Lovely Spam...Lovely Spam...

No spam for me either...But then again I'm so computer illiterate that I'm not really even sure what spam is...Is it just junk mail with potential virused attachments or is it worse than that?

So it's not even dangerous? It's just like those carpet cleaning post cars you get in the mail??? Just the technological version of a car wash coupon??? What a disappointment...

You could get a paper cut off those things! They're really dangerous. Killers. With big nasty teeth.

That's true...I never thought of that...Alergies to the inks used too...Some people have really bad reactions to those...Alergies are way more than hay fever and the like...Some people have actual alergies to shruberies and such! It's a dangerous world!
