"Revenge" spam. What. The fuck??!?

One of my various e-mail addresses I’ve had for many, many years. It’s also the “pure form” of a word - “Bob” instead of “Bob12345” or “alligator” instead of “allEg8tor,” you see. I get more e-mail from people sending to the wrong address than spam for that account - it’s quite amazing. And the random IM’s I get - hoo, boy! :slight_smile:

Well, I haven’t been emailed by a wanker yet today.

Well, apparently my school email address was previously owned by a Korean perv named Christopher, because my inbox gets about 40 spams a DAY, all in Korean, and almost all of it porn! Yay Christopher, asshat. It’s at the point where I’m VERY seriously debating the merits of asking for a different address.
