Subject: Spam is getting really silly and pointless these days
I know you would be surprised to read from someone relatively unknown to you. My name is LT. Sharon Banks, a member of the U.S. ARMY USARPAC Medical Team, which was deployed to Iraq at the beginning of the war in Iraq. I would like to share some highly personal classified information about my personal experience and role which I played in the pursuit of my career serving under the U.S 1st Armored which was at the fore-front of the war in Iraq.
Though, I would like to hold back certain information for security reasons for now until you have found the time to visit the BBC website stated below to enable you have an insight into what I intend sharing with you, believing that it would be of your desired interest one-way or the other.
Also, could you get back to me having visiting the above website to enable us discuss in a more clarifying manner to the best of your understanding. I must say that I'm very uncomfortable sending this message to you without knowing truly if you would misconstrue the importance and decides to go public. In this regards, I will not hold back to say that the essence of this message is strictly for mutual benefit between you and I and nothing more.
I will be vivid and coherent in my next message in this regards, meanwhile, could you send me an email confirming that you have visited the site and that you have understood my intentions? I will await your thoughts via my personal email: lb19.70sharon@live.com Thanks, Best Regards LT. Sharon Curtis Banks.
They found money? Big deal. I find $2 coins in the gutter and under cinema seats all the time.
People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made.

I win the British Lottery on a daily basis, have many rich friends in Nigeria offering me the inheritance of distant family members and I get so many viagra and member enhancement offers that if applied would result in an ejaculation on the same power scale as that of a shotgun being discharged at point blank range.
This message was rather refreshing change of pace.

My junk inbox is fething flooded with those viagra ads and addresses of great drug dealers in my area (which, contrary to what the spambot thinks, is not Seattle).

The idea is that it takes extra effort and time to write properly, and they’d rather save the time. If you can still be understood, what’s the harm? While most of the time a sloppy post CAN be understood, the use of proper grammar, punctuation, and spelling is generally seen as respectable and desirable on most forums. It demonstrates an effort made to be understood, and to make your post an easy and pleasant read. By making this effort, you can often elicit more positive responses from the community, and instantly mark yourself as someone worth talking to.

Several years ago one of the something awful authors was sent a scam email and eventually scammed about $100US out of the scammers as he kept saying that his bank required a payment for the release of funds from his fixed term deposit.
He created a new bank account, they deposited the money and he withdrew it and closed the account, then started a new email address.
