Michael what have you done that yr spam names are so *consistently* better than anyone else's?!!?

I can only suspect that this scattergun spamming actually has a highly polished seed of Market Research at its core; I'm getting all the good ones (I'm not sure that's true, actually - Lara, Rosemary, Paul and Nick have some smack-faced nuggets) because They know I have some small facility for this myself and I get a bang out of it.

And I need a septic tank and an MSc.

No mail today :(

Staunton Attal and Cerce Rosson are the latest pair to absolutely insist that I wake up lighter.

Delilah Minus and Mehan Salotti are offering me $310 of chips at their online casino.

I think mine are getting up to speed w.yrs Mike: Tabatha Daughdrill and Cassara Goehring

Braulio Kubly needs to chat with me about my septic tank.

Mahalia Luana wants to adress my refinancing needs.
OneBigOne promises "Superior Penile Shaftosis".

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Tuesday, 8 April 2003 18:03 (twenty-one years ago) link

Yes, Mark, the distribution of ludicrousity is beginning to settle down. The only new ones in the last 24 hours are the fairly uninspired So Linne and Gifford Harelson ("Obtain the qualification without wasting the funds").

A Catherine Redmond has told me quite boldly:

Subject: I can wait to see you at work again.

Well then.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 9 April 2003 19:25 (twenty-one years ago) link

At least Catherine sounds quite pleasant, and moderately intriguing (even).

On the other hand, OpJXu1@yahoo.com tells me I should no longer be embarrassed by visits to the doctor (for some unknown reason)

― C J (C J), Wednesday, 9 April 2003 19:36 (twenty-one years ago) link

Dr. Wang Chinly

(i am not making this up)

― jess (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 9 April 2003 19:37 (twenty-one years ago) link

I would be embarrassed to see Dr Wang Chinly, obv.

Perhaps my last contribution to this thread, as I did suggest I would stop once we'd got out of the habit of bunkerbusting suburban restaurants and shelling journalists, and I *think* that bit's over, so:

Tynio Kromer and Veteto Panis

...with some diet thing or other.

Not ludicrous names, but when expecting an email from my cousin Pam yesterday, I got a porn spam from a Pam (no more than that), then again yesterday I got one from someone with a forename identical to an old friend, and a surname with just one added, silent letter - also porn. And just now, another porn one from 'Anna', sadly not our Ms F. These people are at least making me look at the email.

Lattestant Rattestations

I just got one from Alex (don't know where this Alex is based, which is odd, as they usually say) with the subject line "My name is Gabriella", which is an odd combination.

― mark s (mark s), Friday, 25 April 2003 11:04 (twenty-one years ago) link

I think it's between Tbaltimora Vbaltimore and yr man Partily.

Let's write back to them and see what they think.

― mark s (mark s), Tuesday, 6 May 2003 23:14 (twenty-one years ago) link

That's a bit too Douglas Adams, Mark. Anyway, I went to school with Qaph's sister, Zviviqossaliss.

I'm afraid I delete all the INVALID_ADDRESS@SYNTAX_ERROR mails from Yahoo now without even checking the 'real' names. I wish I could get back that early rush of joy but it's gone. Like a cheap watch. (?)

I once registered for a website under the name "Raekwon The Chef" so I often get emails with the subject heading: "Mr. Chef, have you considered our $100,000 life insurance policy?" or "Oh Raekwon! Click here and jizz on my tits!"

Lupe I. Stover would like very much for me to get larger balls (!?) and penís, more pleasure, more satisfaction

Some new winners that my coworker Tom got regarding Russian mail-order brides:

Cowett Curcuru
Skinnen Krawchuk
Akiereisen Shilo
Swanton Langen

Though that last one could be the name of one of those pretenders being talked about.

There's a hardened warrior roaming Starcraft and Diablo

i got spam from 'duane'!

― minna (minna), Monday, 19 May 2003 13:49 (twenty years ago) link

two weeks pass...

Today I got a spam message (advertising growth hormone) with the subject "Joshua is so sugary that I am transforming the belly dance."

Doubtless this is an attempt to bypass statistical filtering methods. See also "desitkami cieantque wai zerkratzenden," and "planter juntorio pitch into" from Chase Collazo.

― Paul Eater (eater), Tuesday, 3 June 2003 23:19 (twenty years ago) link

It's worth a full REVIVE just for that, Paul.

New sub-thread: ridiculous subject headings.

Darling, that one isn't for sharing.
