Lame spams of the day: everyone wants to send me money

July 16, 2012 by Robert 2 Comments

Here are some of the “loan offers” that have landed in my spam folder.  None have attachments, links, or graphics.  One used a blue font, the others were plain old black Courier.  The subject lines were blank in every case.  The senders included:

kelly loan offer (web.office20026045@att.net)
Alreford Ltd (web.0123345667785@att.net)
LOAN OFFER APPLY (web.office_10.5088@att.net)
EQUITY LOAN (web.office.91.98.0@att.net)
Get A Loan Now (web.cp.office_2ww5@att.net)
Jh Law (web.office.2222604@att.net)
STEVE LOAN OFFER (web.office_1010@att.net)

The messages were short and sweet:

  • loan offer available apply now for more info.
  • Loan at 3% Interest. CONTACT with amount, duration, tel.
  • Do you need loan? apply
  • LOAN OFFER @ 2% APPLY NOW FOR MORE INFO.
  • DO YOU NEED ALOAN TO PAY UP YOUR BILL OR TO START A BUSINESS? EMAILUS
