I got one today titled:
'Do u Know why you receive so many email?' (sic)

The body of the spam continued as follows:

'We will put your product or service instantly into the hands of millions!

Since 1996, Bulk Email Network has provided bulk email marketing to thousands of ... '

They continued on with all the hype (and a telephone number, no e-mail or web site address). The last line was:

'Now you know why you receive so many email advertisements...'

I had to laugh...
:rolleyes:

hey Kat, Yep. I saw about 20 of those with that subject fly into my inbox today. I deleted every one of them without opening. If I do not know the subject clearly or it is not a title that my associates or clients would use, the delete button is hit just as fast as I receive it. :)

Normally I do the same, but every once in a while I look at one -- if the subject catches my attention. I thought it might be a spam for an anti-spam program (I do enjoy irony...).
