#2 I've been getting heavy spam from Russia/East Europe on a daily basis for over a year. Since I don't have cyrillic letters installed, I can't even see/read what the f*ck they're trying to sell me

#4 Dear sir:

This is a confidential business opportunity.

I am the widow of Vardan Kushnir. Before his death, he invested $40,000,000 in diamonds....

#6 Kushnir crossed a "partner" in one of his little enterprises. It's just a bonus to the anti-SPAM effort.

#7 Now, can I hope to see something nasty happen to the Germanic numbnuts who keep sending the automated gambling, credit and pill comment spam to websites like mine?
It wouldn't have to be terminal... just something painful and disfiguring, with a looooong recovery time.

#8 Couldn't happen to a nicer guy...

Along these lines, I just received a spam about half an hour ago I wish I hadn't deleted. It professed to be from some "José" dude from a United Nations anti-terrorist group claiming that since I was such a model citizen I could get some certificate of anti-terrorism support, yada, yada, yada... And the subject was "dar" instead of the usual generic subject in most spam.

Makes me wonder if this was just another front for a scam (it made no mention of money but maybe a response would generated a request) or if some Islamofascists are combing conservative blogs to harvest emails in order to get real names and addresses and build a fatwa list.

#9 It's easy to write a spider to pick off your handle and the associated email addy. It's even easier to buy the extensive lists generated by existing spiders. It's why I won't put an email addy on my posts at any blog, never send e-cards, or any of the other common sources which sell or can be harvested for email addresses.

I have a special Hotmail account just for that purpose. Never read any of the mail that gets sent there, just visit once a week to dump it.

#12 Re #2 (Frank G, cyrillic letters): So that's why part of my spam is gobbledegook!

Hummm.... a little eccentric sorta action, that plus the green highlight marks you. With medication and close supervision you can lead a full life. Avoid electronic transactions and spend as much time as possible outdoors, away from little baby ducks.
