Simple message.
"<b>This message </b>contains an attachment that will help you." (yes, the bold is intentional... it was bolded in the original email)
Help me what? I'm kinda curious, and yet, my danger sense and love for Koori the Ice Queen tells me not to.

I get like 100 porn emails a day.
But that's like consentual rape... it isn't rape if you want it.
It isn't spam if I want it.
I keep tellign customers we don;t filter spam because some people want it, and they never beleive me, but I was right !

Oh I got another one and saw the title this time, Creamy Mess
:disgust :rocket: :mad: :barf :barf :barf
I wish someone would make a program already that will automatically send this nasty crap back to the sender and flood their email account with this crap. Its annoying to see the emails in your mailbox but then to have to see pictures when ya open your email. Time to hire a hacker to break into these guys computers and fill their whole computer with the crap they send out.
SOMEONE COME TO OUR RESCUE AND SAVE US FROM THESE SPAMMING EMAILS!!!
problem with that, is that the email address it says it comes from is usually not where it really came from

I don't use the preview pane. You can usually tell from the sender and subject whether it's mail from someone you know. So, when I get new messages, I select all of them, unselect the ones I recognize, and *nuke* the rest to oblivion. So I never have to see pictures.
Also, there's an old trick that can be used in email, which is encoding information in an image link - even if the image is only one pixel and is white on a white background. When your computer tries to render that picture, it has to send a request to the server at the specified URL. Someone with the right setup on the server side can then tell which email addresses are receiving their spam, so they know your address is good and can sell it to other spammers as a "good" address.
This is a HUGE reason I nuke most of my mail without opening or previewing it.
Die, spammers, die!!
Die, spammers, die!!

Subject: Nigerian Astronaut Wants To Come Home
Dr. Bakare Tunde
Astronautics Project Manager
National Space Research and Development Agency (NASRDA)
Plot 555
Misau Street
PMB 437
Garki, Abuja, FCT NIGERIA
Dear Mr. Sir,
REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE-STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL
I am Dr. Bakare Tunde, the cousin of Nigerian Astronaut, Air Force Major Abacha Tunde. He was the first African in space when he made a secret flight to the Salyut 6 space station in 1979. He was on a later Soviet spaceflight, Soyuz T-16Z to the secret Soviet military space station Salyut 8T in 1989. He was stranded there in 1990 when the Soviet Union was dissolved. His other Soviet crew members returned to earth on the Soyuz T-16Z, but his place was taken up by return cargo. There have been occasional Progrez supply flights to keep him going since that time. He is in good humor, but wants to come home.
In the 14-years since he has been on the station, he has accumulated flight pay and interest amounting to almost $ 15,000,000 American Dollars. This is held in a trust at the Lagos National Savings and Trust Association. If we can obtain access to this money, we can place a down payment with the Russian Space Authorities for a Soyuz return flight to bring him back to Earth. I am told this will cost $ 3,000,000 American Dollars. In order to access the his trust fund we need your assistance.
Consequently, my colleagues and I are willing to transfer the total amount to your account or subsequent disbursement, since we as civil servants are prohibited by the Code of Conduct Bureau (Civil Service Laws) from opening and/ or operating foreign accounts in our names.
Needless to say, the trust reposed on you at this juncture is enormous. In return, we have agreed to offer you 20 percent of the transferred sum, while 10 percent shall be set aside for incidental expenses (internal and external) between the parties in the course of the transaction. You will be mandated to remit the balance 70 percent to other accounts in due course.
Kindly expedite action as we are behind schedule to enable us include downpayment in this financial quarter.
Please acknowledge the receipt of this message via my direct number 234 (0) 9-234-2220 only.
Yours Sincerely, Dr. Bakare Tunde
Astronautics Project Manager
