Could someone tell me how to set up Outlook to disable images in the message body? I can’t figure it out on my PC, and my dad, on a Mac, is reluctant to use his computer since the day last week he got (apparently) the same email the OP received. Much appreciated.
I should send my own spam.
**“Technically Virgin Just-Exited Teenage Years Lesbian Seeking Same Who Doesn’t Want Your Cock Because She Has Three Of Her Own.” **
Eh, probably too long for a subject line. Might get full points for truth in advertising, tho.
At this point Farm Sluts should be mentioned.
The story of how one man’s life is destroyed by spam (ok, technically it was from a friend, but still).
One I recently deleted, something of an enigma: “Women play in our casino.” Now, what’s it advertising?
Super Gnat, that was hysterical.
Super Gnat, can you explain your link to those of us without DSL?
Jpeg Jones,
It’s a short film (black comedy) starting out with this guy at work searching through his e-mails and getting one from his friend titled “family photos” or something of that nature. He clicks on the link in the e-mail and gets pictures of farm animals doing women. He closes the window and another pops up. And another. And another. All while a coworker is talking to him. Finally, the coworker notices and the next thing we know, he’s fired from his job and living with his parents.
The rest of the film is about him alternating between trying to find a job when EVERYONE knows he likes to watch farm animals do it, and him utterly failing at committing suicide.
It’s funny in parts but could have used a bit more direction, IMO. Anyway, that’s about it.
Hahaha. That was great, definately worth the downlaod.
Here is a direct link, right-click and do a save target as.
Damn it, where is my hot Russian bride they always spam me about?
Yeah, follow mblackwell’s link. Sorry, I didn’t know DSL (or in my case, ethernet) was required to view it.
super gnat- That was hilarious! BTW, dsl isn’t required, it’s just that it’s an awfully big file for dialup users, easier to download and save, then view, unless you have a fast connection like cable or dsl.
masonite-go to View, then Layout, and turn off Preview Pane. OR, go to Tools, then Options, then Read tab, and add a check to Display Messages as Plain Text Only.
hastur-That was great. Let us not forget that Spam is Sp[iced] [H]am. It’s a spicy pork product, was only a matter of time before porn got in the mix. 
pantheon:
Thanks so much.
Bummer! 49+ megs. I’ll hafta pass.

What puzzles me is that my e-mail has a .se ending, thus indicating that I’m in fact where I say, I’m from - Sweden. Why then do I get “Great mortgage rates”, “Apply for an account with…”, “considered selling your house…?”, “great weekend getaway with Eastern Airlines…” ASF.
I know shouldn’t expect these people to actually be quipped with brains, and it’s not like it’s costing them enything, but still…

Oh - and I get lots of porn spam too.
So, do the porn companies really make money? Are there actually people out there who willingly give out their credit card numbers to these sites?
One time, I got two pieces of pornographic spam with the subject line “Nasty Dogfart Sluts”.
“Dogfart”?
Obviously trying to tap into the lucrative market for canine-flatulence-fetish material.
