I just got a e-mail so stupid, old and fake looking it made me laugh, and I've had many worse over the time, so I decided to make this thread so we can share stupid spam e-mails we got!

Mine is in the attached picture.

EDIT: Whats even more stupid is that I have Google Mail, not MSN!

Does that really end by addressing you as dude? If so, it must be real. All official MSN correspondence is written that way. :D

I'd have to give my votes for "most annoying" spam e-mail to the political crap I sometimes get from people I know. I don't know what makes people think it's okay to shotgun that out to their entire address book; even when they have no idea what sort of political views any of them have. Without fail, the junk they send is 180 degrees off from my views.

Honorable mentions have to go to the e-mail I get from the financial ministers of African nations, and offers to enhance my sex life.
 
looks like you're using Gmail. i'm surprised that got through their spam filter.
 
I have my spam folder deleted every 30 days, so it's gone, but one of the funnier ones I got claimed that a pill would increase my *range* by 30%. Heh! Very helpful if I'm looking to deliver a pearl necklace from across the room! :)
 
Ha! Very funny ones! This is not quite as good, but very stupid...

Hi, I am Teddy. Once you read this you
cannot get out. Finish reading this
until it is done! As I said, I am
Teddy. I am 7 years old. I have no eyes
and blood all over my face. I am dead.
If you don't send this to at least 12
people I will come to your house at
midnight and I'll hide under your bed.
When you're asleep, I'll kill you.
Don't believe me?

Case 1:
Patty Buckles
Got this e-mail. She doesn't believe
in chain letters. Well, Foolish Patty.
She was sleeping when her TV started
flickering on and off. Now she's not
with us anymore. Ha ha patty, Ha ha!
You don't want to be like Patty, do
you?


Case 2:
George M. Simon
Hates chain mail, but he didn't want
to die that night. He sent it to 4
people. Not good enough George. Now,
George is in a coma, we don't know if
he'll ever wake up. Ha ha George, Ha
ha! Now, do you want to be like George?

Case 3:
Valarie Tyler
She got this letter. Another chain
letter she thought. Only had 7 people
to
send to. Well, That night when she was
having a shower she saw bloody Mary
in the mirror. It was the BIGGEST
fright of her life. Valarie is scarred
for
life.

Case 4:
Derek Minse
This is the final case I'll tell you
about. Well, Derek was a smart person.
He sent it to 12 people. Later that
day, he found a $100.00 bill on the
ground. He was premoted to head
officer at his job and his girlfriend
said
yes to his purposal. Now, Katie and
him are living happily ever after.The
have 2 beautiful children.

Send this to at least 12 people or
you'll face the consequences.

0 people- You will die tonight

1-6 people- you will be injured

7-11 people- you will get the biggest
fright of your life

12 and over- you are safe and will
have good fortune!

Do What Teddy Says!!!! Hurry, you must
send to 12 people OR ELSE....

Oh no! The evil chain e-mail! a dead girl with a stupid name will kill me for not sending a e-mail! :rolleyes:
 
Sorry to bring up a old thread, but I just took a look at my spam folder!!!

Now, just to make this clear, I have 1717 messages in there, and they all get deleted every 30 days.

Look at when they were sent, thats not even 1 days worth as its the morning, and the other page has loads from yesturday!

Im most scared at the one from Kelby Harkin (near the bottom).

I had one e-mail that said if I took their pill, I would be able to use a certain part of the male anatomy as a pool cue.


Um.....ouch? Sounds like that would hurt pretty badly.

Thats the scary part, I NEVER give my e-mail address on the net, apart from a few forums and Engadget, and my address is hidden on the forums all the time!
