Spam of Interest

I have a file of some of the best spam I’ve ever received – mostly porn-related – which I plan on posting on here when I’m in a writing mood but short on ideas. Stay tuned for that.

On that subject, I’ve noticed that spammers are trying hard to be creative in order to get around filters. They don’t include the typical “junk” words, or if they do, they have extra spaces or characters to disguise them. The problem is that eventually they will be completely out of words to use and the people who actually click on the spam links (do those people really exist?) won’t even realize that it’s supposed to be porn.

Here’s what I mean. Today I received an email with this subject: “Farm bitches choose their favorite animals”. There is no direct implication of sex at all. In fact, I like to envision really mean and whiny girls in overalls chewing straw and standing in a line while identifying which of the animals they like best.

“I heart sheep!”

“You dumb ho, Morton is the finest pig I ever seen.”

And so on.

Actually, I kind of want to see that. Maybe I’m the target audience for this spam.
