Don’t you just love spam email? Not all of it is junk you know, sometimes, there’s just some gems in there you have to share with others… like this one I got today from Mr. Williams Holmes, a good, English sounding name, you think, yes?
Read on… I was especially excited to see that I’ve won so much money in a lottery powered by the Internet.
Something about the wording though… I didn’t think that I’d send Mr. Williams Holmes all my personal details. Have I just lost a lot of money? Shame. To get the full force of this email, it’s best if you read it with a fonejacker style African voice.
