Sure, email spam can sometimes be funny. But the truth is, the benefits (a good laugh) don't outweigh the risk (malware, phishing scams/identity theft, wasted time). Here are some of the most bizzare Twitter posts regarding email spam we came across recently.
@Nielochka: I know some women get spam for viagra. I just got email spam "neilochka, stop stress during pre-menstrual syndrome, guaranteed!"
Sounds like this guy escaped identity theft, but instead is a victim of mistaken identity - and just so happens they're mistaking him to be a woman...
@shellihowells: Email spam: "ColoThin" So many possibilities...
Just sounds gross, c'mon, if you're going to spam us, at least spam us about something we'd like to hear about...
@fmu: email spam subjects are getting more creative: "Your golden watch will never cheat on you."
What does this even mean?
@MarketerMikeE: If I used all the Viagra offered to me via email spam my new nickname would be "Kickstand"
Once again showcasing that the only thing spam is good for, is humor.
@auggy: What's more annoying than email spam? When an unsubscribe request is asking you for more than just your email address.
That would be annoying...
@peters3m: How did this happen, received a email spam selling viagra &other drugs supposedly from me how did they do that
Sure, lead us to believe your not behind it! Kidding, it happens to us all Pete...
@sdmeyers: Apparently McAfee would like my password to troubleshoot an issue with their email spam filters. I'm not sure how to respond.
- Really? Sounds like a scam to me, spam about spam. Hopefully this guy knows not to give his password.
Anyway, as funny as it is, no one should have to deal with email spam. Sign up for a free trial of Google's Postini through our website, and learn how to stop spam today!
