Junk Mail Subject Titles

Here is a fun experiment... I have a hotmail account so I get an obscene amount of junk mail.

The headers always seem to amaze me. At least the Junk Mail filters are getting better at figuring these out.

Here are a few samples and comments.

1. Квартиры в элитном доме на юго-западе Москвы.zapopan.com -- For some reason, I get a LOT of these emails that seem to be written in some sort of Greek or Turkish or something. I do not know how I got on such a list nor do I care... but I wouln't mind if they stopped.

2. FW:RE:PE:RM:ANEN:TGR:OW:TH_Kent -- You will note what they are trying to do with this one. I am sure that most filters immediately remove emails that have the words permanent growth or penis so they have cleverly hidden the actual words by separating letters with the colons. Clever ... but they still end up in the bulk mail folder!

3. FW:RE:VI:AG:RAOF:FE:R_Escobar -- See #2. mmm... Cheap Viagra...

4. Deals On Wheels - New 2005s! -- When I saw this one, I figured that they were offering me some sort of a deal on a new car. I was mistaken. It was actually an offer for Viagra. Is everything about Viagra or Cialis?

5. PENIS! -- That one was the most direct and most accurate.

Have a nice day folks.
