A Whole New Month

it hit me today like a ton of bricks -- it's august. to celebrate this moment, i want to share a spam i got -- yes a spam. i have no idea why it even caught my eye, but it did and oddly i'm thankful... it made me chuckle. just so they don't get any additional exposure, i'm going to X out their name, but otherwise it is as i got it -- typos, lies, and all...

Hi [my email address removed]

I wanted to pass this along to you. It came in from one of out members at X and she wanted to make sure nobody else got caught with this scam like she did.

Subject: Warning

I hate these warnings, but this one is important! Send this warning to everyone on your e-mail list!

If someone comes to your front door saying they are conducting a survey and asks you to take your clothes off, do not do it!

This is a scam; they only want to see you naked.

I wish I'd gotten this yesterday. I feel so stupid and cheap now...

---------------

If you are the person going to these peoples doors, I have an easier way. Just join us at X and find someone who WANTS to get neked with you.

clever. amusing. but still spam.

yup. it was part of a spam message advertising and "adult" service. sadly enough, i guess, i hadn't seen/heard that one before. so much funny stuff out there, so little time to be amused by it all.
