Spam emails

Post by Red Spot »

Just wondering if others notice this as well ..

Cleaned up my spam-folder and couldnt help notice that often it is quite easy to spot them .. from a distance. Spelling is so incorrect I would sooner say the grammer used is incorrect, got an email from the FBI .. from a @live account, you name it.

Couple of years ago I actually had some spammail that almost got me wondering if it would be true, doesnt seem to be the case anymore.

Some examples:

Your nelxt dolor womens' accougnts are onn [link]

This one was tricky, starting with -RE- and all ....

I get a lot of e-mails from banks telling me there is a problem with my account and I'll need to send them all my details. Funny thing is, I've recieved them from every bank in the country except the one I'm with.
