Bad English Spam

This is a bit off topic, but this reminds me of the phone call I once received that had the caller ID “Illegal Scam”. I didn’t answer.

There are Barristers in the US. They just do regular tourist stuff (visit the Grand Canyon, go skiing, see family, etc) and then they go back home. Hang around an international airport and I’m sure you’ll run into one someday.

I received professional magazines at work that were addressed to me including my job title: T. Bonham, Systems Analyst. They obviously sold their mailing list to others, and somewhere along the way it got truncated.

So I had fun getting letters like this:

One of my former bosses had a file of letters and documents containing funny gaffes (it would be circulated for entertainmment in the holiday season) - one of the letters in there must have been a mailmerge problem - it was addressed “Dear Null…”
