Spam I just got

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Current News - Homefront Preparations : One Thread

I just got a piece of spam, from some outfit under the impression apparently that I am a flasher.

It is from biggerpenis4u@... (a forthright name)

It asks whether I have "always wanted to be the centre of attraction".

Notice the spelling of "centre." A clear indication that this outfit is in the U.K. I don't think an American spammer would sink this low.

Probly a Yank who can't spell, lol! BTW, a great portion of the world uses British spellings, particularly Asia, Russia and the former USSR countries where a lot of this stuff originates.

I get hard-core porno spam from all over the world--ask Carl, I forwarded him a bunch.

I send 'em all to Spamcop.net.

A reminder--never reply to the address given to opt out of future e-mails. Doing so merely confirms that yours is a valid e-mail address and that you read the spam. Your address will be sold to other spammers.

here is an actual (spam) email i received:

Subject: Time Travelers PLEASE HELP !

Below is the result of your feedback form. It was submitted by Frank Y***** (webmaster@***.com) on Saturday, December 15, 19101 at 05:36:43

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

message: If you are a time traveler or alien disguised as human and or have the technology to travel physically through time I need your help!

My life has been severely tampered with and cursed!! I have suffered tremendously and am now dying!

I need to be able to:

Travel back in time.

Rewind my life including my age.

Be able to remember what I know now so that I can prevent my life from being tampered with again after I go back.

I am in very great danger and need this immediately!

I am aware that there are many types of time travel and that humans do not do well through certain types.

I need as close to temporal reversion as possible, as safely as possible. To be able to rewind the hands of time in such a way that the universe of now will cease to exist. I know that there are some very powerful people out there with alien or government equipment capable of doing just that.

If you can help me I will pay for your teleport or trip down here, Along with hotel stay, food and all expenses. I will pay top dollar for the equipment. Proof must be provided.



Only if you have this technology and can help me please send me a (SEPARATE) email to:

Robby***@***.com

Thanks

i removed the email addy's.....cause i'm afraid it might get around, and these guys definately don't need to be communicating with anyone who would respond.......heh

and btw....i have NO idea what "feedback form" they are talking about....i have never submitted anything that could possibly have elicited this

Mebs, those "feedback" form type emails arrive in my incoming mail all the time. Seems to be just another attempt to get me to click further into their little cesspool of attractions.

I really do like the one you just posted. Imagine someone believing that time travel is possible (actually *I* do) and that there is someone out there just waiting for invitations to sell that service. With *proof* of course. One of the things I like about the various movies that have dealt with that subject is the warnings about creating a paradox when we try to go back and rewrite something. Even if that request was legitimate, which I doubt, the person making it is merely trying to play games with their physical body, selfish games at that, and it will lead nowhere of value to them. The answers to such concerns lies within spiritual realities, not physical ones, and I imagine that is why David has gone off to see his own great spiritual elders about his present personal situation.
