BS: Sickest Spam

This appeared in my Inbox this morning, from someone calling herself Enid Russo.

News|etter - September Issue, 2005

In September's issue we are going to profi|e a
company involved in the Red Hot homeland
security sector. This company's st0ck is very much
undervalued considering the potential of the
industry and the position of the company. (The
perfect time to get in)


This is opportunism carried to immoral lengths.

For the sake of an ignorant Yorkshireman, what are you talking about ?

Don is upset to find spam in his electronic mail promoting that he invest in a stock, and referring to our current domestic quagmire as "the red-hot Homeland security sector".

It's kind of like promoting an airplane company near 1938 Berlin as being a good investment because they are part of the "red-hot war machine sector" -- it quacks of blind immorality.

Perhaps more nearly exquivalent to a pitch to invest in body bags, NOW!

Precisely Amos. Marvellous how vultures gather to pick over the bones for their own profit, when disaster strikes.

I got this same spam yesterday. Made it through my filter, but I didn't even read the first line of it before I hit DELETE.

I never read that stuff. I can tell what is spam even when it occasionally gets past the filter.

My advice: Delete it unopened. Don't get upset by it.

Not upset SRS, blazing mad because I don't have a button on my PC to blow the sender's ass apart.

No point discussing morals in a house of ill repute.

Don't forget the dozens of bogus sites posing as charities helping out Katrina victims. Many ask for your credit card information so you can contribute. These guys are phishing and pharming - many of these sites are offshore in Brazil and China.
