    One of the facts of life that we have to live with when use the internet is that sometimes we will receive unwanted messages. Usually advertising some dubious product or otherwise trying to con us into giving out money or sensitive information.

    Last night I received a spam message in my private inbox on another site I use, and although I knew it was not legit, it was none the less quite flattering. This is it. I've starred out the email address to protect the innocent as they say. I thought it might provide some mild entertainment...

    "My name is miss Martha never married before,i saw your account profile in this site today and
    became interested in you,i will also like to know you the more,and i want you to send an email direct to my email address so i can give you my picture for you to know whom i am.
    Here is my email address(***)
    I believe we can move from here!i am waiting for your mail to my email address
    above Martha
    (Remember the distance or color does not matter but love matters a lot in life)"

    Note: I'm sure you all know this, but just in case you don't, you should never reply to spam messages, not even to shout at the sender. If they are on a forum, simply report it to the mods, and if it is an email simply mark it as spam/junk and then delete it, otherwise you'll open the flood gates for the spammers and your inbox will be inundated.

    I recently received something similar on another forum accompanied by a Spam warning from the forum's Administrator. The amusing this in my case was that 'Joy' was very interested in getting to know me better ....:blush: :heehee:
