The Mail I Get

Browsing through my SPAM folder today, I came across this beauty (relevant props removed):

aaron.brazell@emmense.com is a nonprofit/charity contact email address right? if so…

WE WILL EMAIL YOUR WEB SITE TO 2,500,00 0PT-IN EMAILS FOR [Free]

First Open Your Web Browser and Type in:

www . example . org

—– —- — — – -
Second at our company web site above, read all about details on how our emailing service works, then send a letter to the postal mailing address on our company web site above with your non-profit and/or charity status as registered in your country of origin along with your mission statement enclosed, along with your email address and we will then send you all the specifications needed on how to receive your non-commercial, non-cost, non-transactional, non-relationship, charity/non-profit courtesy emailing. [Emphasis Added by me]

this non-commercial, non-transactional, non-relationship, courtesy emailing has an important primary purpose of helping society by assisting nonprofits & charities have their non-profit/non-commercial mission statement/special message sent out to 2.5mil option in emails as a courtesy to help worldwide in national and global relief efforts for various causes in need of support.

Har. Har. Why me? :)

    Hi,

    I got this today as well, 3 times. Great, the b*st*rds spammed my business address – God and these spammers only know how many copies were sent out. So now my business email address will probaly be added to just about every spam list in the civilised world. How can I track these people and prevent this from happening ?

    I’m getting all this too, except it sends it to false email address. I don’t have “billing@chrisjs.com” “webmaster@chrisjs.com” “help@chrisjs.com” or any other emails like that. Problem is, is that it goes to my catch-all address, the one I use as my “personal” address
