All spam som dagligen fyller ens mailbox irriterar väldigt ofta och personligen har jag lyckats lärt mig att radera brev som liknar spam utan att reflektera över det enbart genom att se på ärendet. Men ibland kan man råka öppna spam som ser lite annorlunda ut än de flesta andra, och ibland kan de till och med vara så skrattretande att man måste dela med sig av dem till andra.

Det bästa spam jag nånsin fått

Jag vill verkligen köpa min egen e-postadress....

ASCII-konst

Spammarna försöker på det mesta för att komma förbi spamskydden och det mesta som kommer igenom numera är därför helt oläsligt istället. Men här är ett spam jag fick som kom igenom min högsta spärr (men ändå markerades som spam), tycker det är lite vackert att de börjat med ASCII-konst.

Spamskyddsspam?

Nu börjar jag bli spammad av spamskydd... Slog mig att nu när dessa spamskydd börjar bli vanliga skulle spammare lätt kunna använda dylika för att ta reda på fungerande adresser.

Thanks!

Äntligen ger spam något mer än bara huvudvärk!

Min e-postadress har vunnit en miljon dollar! Och på grund av att de blandat ihop namn och nummer så vill de för att ha så hög säkerhet som möjligt att man inte ger ut någon information. Hur hög säkerhet kan det vara om de blandat ihop såna enkla saker? Humor. Jag gör en chansning och lägger ut hela brevet ändå, sån humor är värd att mista en miljon dollar för.
