Bizarre Spam mails??

    Got the following mails together.

    From: "Lynne S. Categorization" <sifted@modestocpas.com>
    Title: descend
    Text: cluing

    Next one was.

    From: "Maddened L. Comets" <backsliders@oztrail.com.au>
    Title: Lessie
    Text: homogeneity

    Both emails have hidden text of "Riskiness". Nothing else in the mails, headers and email addresses are total BS.

    I can only think...

    a) This is some kind of puzzle.
    b) The payload didn't fire/get delivered as it passed through my mail servers.

    Anyone else get anything like this?

    They either forgot to attach the virus, or it got stripped out before it landed in your mailbox.

    THe only spam I ever get to my hotmail account is all for 'Evon Olivverre'. Who is this man! The mails all give a link to a flash movie for a get rich quick scheme.

    At one stage i was getting about ten a day. If i'd read them i'd have the worlds largest dic.k!

    If you have a hotmail account you can now report all those messages and blocks the address it really helps.

    The Internet is becoming sentient and is crying out for help. It was bound to happen sooner or later.

    I got one advertising a Christian dating site. I checked it out of curiosity and reading the testimonials was one of the best laughs I had in weeks. "The moment I saw his picture, I knew God meant for us to be together through holy matrimony!"

    There were a worrying amount of members claiming to be Irish, too.

    I keep getting spam for rolex watches...i could've gotten 10 watches today alone. Also apparently men are now worried about how their "shot" comes off...had lots of mails with titles like..."only have a dribble? we can help you spurt!" very very weird

    id like to meet the person who sees one of these emails,clicks the link and finds it helpful

    Then id claim to be from the "wallet police" and confiscate it on him/her :D

    I keep getting ones which are from people with names sorta similar to those in my address book. Its weird. One day I got 8 spam emails all from names the same as 8 different contacts in my address book, only the surname would be slightly different or spelt wrong. It was as if someone had got into my address book. Anyone else get this?
    I also get LOADS of those increase your manhood ones, and im female!
