Clever spam (still evil)
This is one of the best spams I have gotten in a while…

Hi,
This is Andre Botelho. I'm surfing right now at "AOL Netfind", and I saw your contact at this web site: http://iheartmena.typepad.com/weblog/2003/07/ rss_anonymous_m.html I want to tell you that you're doing a great job!
I know my customers would be well-suited prospects and vice-versa. What should I do
if I want to send a few of them your way?
Looking forward to your reply. Reply to my personal email address: andrebotelho@aweber.com
Best Regards,
Andre
Anyone else gotten one of these? Clever to use my own page/post to trick me into replying.
I got a different one but still in the same ballpark. Some Russian guy said he noticed I too (?!?!?)was an antique motorcycle enthusiast. Would I like to share links and phots regarding Triumph morotcycles.
Also I’m convinced 99 percent of all Typepad users are running OS X.
Yup — I got the exact same email.
Actually, it was almost exactly the same — but the URL was the URL of my RSS feed.
I got one for a site name which is currently nothing but a five-second redirect to my main blog. Anything but a spambot would’ve noticed. (In fact, a spambot should’ve noticed…)
It’s funny that he was searching with a product that doesn’t exist anymore.
I got the exact same message, only with the URL being that of Ben Hammersley’s RSS feed. This thing’s making the rounds fast.
Count me in, too…something similar to this–it came through a church web site I maintain, but not this exact same message. But yeah, something about having seen something on my web page and that a business relationship might be profitable.
send me hate mail and spam!!!
