In the past months I’ve noticed Gmail’s spam folder containing several real emails so I’ve made it a habit to check it every other day. At the moment I get about ~200 spam mails a day across twelve different accounts and some are just hilarious. Curiously there is quite a lot of them that don’t contain any links or phone numbers and only have maybe one or two sentences in them.

Here’s a list of some of the better ones, unedited:

• Dld you know all lt takes ls a phone and the wllllngness to share some lnformatlon wlth others to see around 1500 to 3500 weekly sometlmes even dally. Call the lnfo llne for more detalls.
• You have frequent convulsions? Time to stop it!
• We are glad to have seen again.
• Purify, Clense, Look Better, Feel Better.
• Feel power and strength of your ancestors when you drilling your woman.
• We teach you the art of becoming.
• Best oil for pork motor.

• “My husband and I tried the program and our energy level increased immediately! After 3 weeks now I have noticed even more changes. My bowel movements have improved and I feel so hydrated and healthy.” Cindy – Nashville, TN

I sure am glad for Cindy from Nashville!

I’ve also received some longer ones which are posted over on my tumblr and are well worth a read:

• Yey, I’m getting an inheritance from someone who has died in the tsunami!
• I’m advised to stop dealing with non officials in my bank and get an ATM card to withdraw lots of money from!
• A corrupt bank employee from Ghana wants to give me money!
• And Ms Angela telling me got rich by travelling to Nigeria!

They all seem so legit!

Not to forget about Vishenka, Veronika and Princess from Russia!
