What's the oddest Spam email you're received?

gramar

I've been getting some odd Spam emails for the last week or so that just make no sense. A few examples are below:

Elbert Medrano 'sent' me an email titled 'your aunts been mighty uneasy'
which read:

'CHAPTER XXXI, Not much.
They hadnt stirred'

From Frances Salinas I got one that read

'So on we prowled again, I couldnt, somehow, for thinking.
Yes, a dukes different.'

Orval Perry sent

'No, I know you havent, Po little chap.
Hes dressed, and everythings ready'


Is anyone else getting this kind of stuff and what's the oddest you've received?

One from a 'Maureen Haughey' asking for help to move money into my own account as the Irish Government had seized her beloved husband's millions after he died.

I have gmail too and I bulk delete them so I've no idea what crazy shít gets sent there either. The ones I get are at work through Outlook.

Not spam exactly but someone with a similar email address to me (not sure exactly what it is) keeps signing up for websites with my email address. Her surname is the same as mine and the first two letters of her first name are the same. It's driving me mad, how hard is it to get your own email address right?

This girl lives in the states and recently signed up for a website that has no unsubscribe link, they want me to call an American number to get my details removed. The website sends loads of emails as well. It's extremely annoying

Not spam exactly, but my girlfriend keeps getting designs for things like water bottles and other sports accesories to approve before manufacture. She's even spoken to the design company (In the USA) and explained that they aren't for her but still every few months comes another design for your urgent approval if we are to meet your deadline!

Sure screw it, there's only 26 letters in the alphabet, you said you thought she must have been getting the first two initials wrong? That's only 676 possible addresses! There's some really top notch spamming software out there these days too, definitely worth a shot...but hey, maybe revenge isn't your thing? Anyway...it's really more of a Shelbyville idea...

My email address is my surname followed by the initials of my first and middle names. Presumably hers is the same but with a different letter in place of the initial of middle name. You're right, It prob wouldn't take that much to figure it out!

Revenge is totally my thing

Hmm, I got one saying "Attack them furiously tonight!!!", sounds like someone's trying to sell you an inferior product man.

Hello nice meeting you,I am Miss Bellar,i am interested in making friend with you,and i found you, please reply to my email box. bellarjohnson4@yahoo.com and i will introduce my self to you and send you my picture.

Dear Prospective Beneficiary/Partner,

I am Mr. David Bello, an employee of UNION BANK OF NIGERIA PLC, Lagos,
Nigeria. I have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you.
In January 2001, a renowned German oil consultant/contractor Mr. Horst
Lehmann made a numbered-time fixed deposit for twelve calendar months
valued at US$ 28.5million in a domiciliary account in my branch.

Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification of account status to his
forwarding address but got no reply, after two months, we sent a reminder
of same letter. And finally we discovered from his contact employers,
Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Port-Harcourt Refinery,
Rivers State of Nigeria, that Mr. Horst Lehmann, a German National died in
a Beirut-bound charter jet Plane Crash on Thursday December 25, 2003,
including his wife, and their two children. Thirty-six out of the
fifty-eight occupants of the charter jet Plane unfortunately lost their
lives.

PLEASE VIEW MORE DETAILS ABOUT THE CRASH:
http://edition.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/africa/12/25/benin.crash/index.html?

After further investigation, I found out that he did not leave a will and
all attempts to trace his kin were fruitless. I therefore made further
investigation and discovered that he did not declare any next of kin in
all his official documents, including his bank deposit papers.This sum of
US$28,500,000.00 Twenty Eight Million Five Hundred Thousand United States
Dollars , is still floating in our bank and the interest is being rolled
over with the principal sum at the end of each year.

After these several attempts, I decided to track his last name over the
Internet, to locate any member of his family hence I contacted you.I have
contacted you to assist in securing this money before they are confiscated
or declared unserviceable by my bank.
It is therefore, upon discovery that I decided to make business with you
and release the money to you as next of kin or relation to the deceased
for safekeeping and Subsequent disbursement, since nobody is coming for it
and I do not want this money to go back into Government's account as
unclaimed bill.

Note that it does not necessarily matter, whether you are biologically
related to the deceased or not. As you may bear with me, a next of kin
maybe a parent,sister, brother, close relative, associate, friend or even
a well wisher.

Therefore, whether you are related to him or not is never a barrier to
realizing the transaction.The important thing is that I have every
detailed information regarding the said Account investment and the
deceased also.

This transaction is aimed at investing in a blue chip company in your
country or any other country under a joint business partnership with you.
However, if you want certain percentage of the deposit for your
involvement, please do let me know so that we negotiate on your share.

Once the deposit is secured, thereafter, I will visit your country, for
the investment thereof. Note, that every arrangement has been put in place
for a smooth and successful transaction.

I expect a positive response from you soonest, contact me via my
alternative e-mail address:[dr.davidbello@qq.com ], so I can advise you on
how to commence.

Yours faithfully,

Dr. David Bello.

And I thought I was the only one getting those confidential 'business' proposals. I don't feel special anymore.

I had this one today from a person claiming to be from the First Bank of Nigeria saying

"Dear Customer,

You are required to download and the attach file to upgrade your internet banking account on our safer platform.

From Dick Manuel:

My newest pick - Best Income Generating Sector Eliminating the Oil Leakage: Who is Getting Profit? NY analysts estimated that BP will allocate $10 billion to $21 billion on cleanup. Clean Harbors of Norwell, Mass., is estimated to generate $323 million from the Gulf spill in 2014. S C XN IDS Oil-Spill Response Solution brings a novel and crucial tool for oil spill response. Buy S C XN till it jumps a buck. It soared 40 cent in just one day! Grab shares below buck on Apr 23rd!

I have no idea what any of that means.
