It’s kind of strange. Pretty much the only consistant spam has been the Nigerian 419 scam letter. The other types of spam I’ve been receiving have been changing over time. It used to be advertisements for various love-life enhancing supplements. Then there was a flood of mortgage and refinancing ads. Now I’m mostly getting ads for tobacco products. I guess it’s a stage of life kind of thing: first they want you to party, then settle down, then kill yourself off…
Still, there have been a couple of chuckle-worthy lines from some recent 419’s that I’ve gotten:
He was held hostage and slain to death by protesting youths of the region.
Yow. Being slain to death sounds like it’d hurt. At least the kids didn’t want to do it. I can just hear them protesting: “Do we have to slay him to death? I don’t wanna…”
My client, his wife and their three children were involved in an accident in which all occupants of the motor died
And the tragic thing is, if they’d been in the passenger compartment of the car they probably would have survived.
One response to “More 419 madness…”
