Do any of the knowledgable hereabouts have any idea of the spam I get in my mail which seems to be a load of totally unrelated sentences about rubbish. I know why I get the spam ( offspring dont take the advice to avoid idiot sites; but thats a separate issue I will nail soon ).
I wondered if it was just some idiots idea of a good time or summat more sinister ?

This is a trick to get through spam filters that look for spam words and also check for no words or just random words and the spam is in the attached picture. Then the picture gets stripped....
Over 90% of the accesses on my mailserver are rejected as being for silly, made up names that I assume are just padding so somebody can sell N million 'verified' email addresses. I have 4000 lines of spam words on my killfile throwing about
3000 spams a month into the bin and some still gets through.I'm not a violent man, I can even be polite to telemarketers, but spammers do push me. Some of the spam I get is so distorted to get it through the filters nobody would buy a product that badly described so why are they bothering?
