Presented for your disaproval, the following spam message that was delivered to my inbox folder:

NÃ²t tÃ³Ã² lÃ²ng ago wÃ© sÃªnt Ã¿Ã³Ãº Ã¤n Ã©mÃ¡Ã®l cÃ²ncÃ«rnÃ¬ng thÃ¨ specÃ¬Ã¡l cÃ¬rcÃ»mstÃ¤ncÃ¨s sÃ»rrÃ³ÃºndÃ®ng Ã¿Ã²ur hÃ²mÃ«.

WÃ¨ havÃ¨ sincÃ© rÃ«Ã«vÃ¢lÃ¼Ã¡tÃªd yÃ³Ã¼r hÃ²mÃ«s qÃºÃ¢lÃ®fÃcÃ¢tÃ®Ã²n lÃ©vÃ¨l, Ã¤nd wÃ³Ã»ld lÃ¬kÃª yÃ²Ã¹ to cÃ³ntÃ¤ct Ã¹s Ã¬mmediÃ¡tÃªly cÃ³ncernÃ®ng thÃ« Ã¤djÃ¹stmÃ«nts.

Ã®f Ã¿Ã²Ã¹ Ã rÃ« able tÃ³ vÃªrÃfy the ÃnformatiÃ²n prÃ²vÃdÃ©d for Ã¿Ã³Ã»r cÃ³nvÃ«nÃ¬Ã¨ncÃ© hÃ¨re in thÃ« lÃnk bÃ©lÃ²w by MÃ³ndÃ¡y, MaÃ½ 17th, wÃª wÃll bÃ« Ã¢blÃ© to gÃ¨t Ã½oÃ» in for prÃ®Ã²ritÃ¿ prÃ³cessÃ¬ng

Please note all the special characters used. Of course we can all see that these characters are just basic BS thrown in for the benifit of the spam filters, same as there ar ways to get past the swear filter here.

Why the hell do marketers keep trying to bombard us with this sh!t? If I wanted to refinance a home, or buy the newest wonder drug, or increase the size of minivader, I'd contact them, not vice versa. Stuff like this just pisses me off. Hopefully the anti-spam orginizations jump on the use of these characters quick and find a way to get the filters to treat Ã« like a regular e.

ROFL at "minivader"

.

To put it simply: spammers should be shot, cremated, and flushed. Not necessarily in that order, either

No no, are you mad? Don't do that to them. That's much too kind.

All right, then. Let's get sadistic

a while back, I got a spam e-mail where every single word was misspelled or written in l33t. I was like "hrm, I wonder if they actually sell anything like that?"

I think spammers do help us understand the rationale behind the doctrine of eternal damnation

Once a spammer started spoofing my adress in the from field, and I got every single bounced e-mail. That's like 1000-2000 per day...
