Happy Birthday Captain Kirk

Ypou know, ti would be ironic if this thread was taken over by spambots. No, that would be coincidental. It would be ironic if it was taken over by spambots with entirely unoriginal names.

I'm going to see if I can find the members list, and check for former spambots in my spare time.

GanusukovaBg oh well it's a bit longer than usual and it sounds kinda like Sanskrit- points for originality

This isn't about a spambot, but it is about junk mail, so I thought it might fit in this thread since it's a similar topic... I received this email the other day and it gave me a little chuckle (not that the topic itself if funny, just the email's purpose):

Dear Sir,

I do appologise for approaching you in this manner but my present condition has made me to desperately seek your help. My name is Mr Peter Drogba the only son of Dr and Mrs Frederick Drogba from Cote d'ivoire. Unfortuantely life is not that so good on my side. My sufferings began after the Rebels in my country killed my parents and my only sister because my father was an opposition leader to the president of my country(Ivory Coast West Africa).

This painful loss of my parents traumatises me everyday, because I'm living in difficulty. All the assets of my father has been forcefully taken away by my uncles.I can not take any action now because i'm afraid of been harmed. Before the death of my father, I gained admission to read Medicine at the university of Cocody and could not complete this program due to these problems.

Before his death he has $6.5 M USD (Six Million , Five Hundred Thousand dollars.) in a domicilary account with a bank in Cote d ' Ivoire which I am the next of kin.

1)I need your assistance to provide a bank account where this money will be transferred to.
2)You will serve as the guardian of this funds since I am 19 years.
3)You will make arrangement for me to come over to your country after the money has been transferred to you.

I have plans to do investment in your country, like real estate and industrial production. I am willing to offer you 20% of the total sum as compensation for your effort after this successful transfer of this fund to your nominated account overseas.

Note that the confidentiality of this transaction would be highly appreciated in replying soonest to my private email address XXXXX

Thanks and best regards.
