Spam would be a lot more effective if …
Here’s a spam I received today. It ended up in my spam folder, so it’s not like it really impacted me, but I was checking to make sure that an email I was expecting hadn’t gotten trapped, and in the process came across this one.
On the surface, it seems like an email from some health department, warning about the risks of buying drugs online where there may not be sufficient safeguards:
Dear valued member.This letter is a part of the official program initiated by the United American Health Department – please, read it to the end if you regularly buy drugs on the Web.
Be careful when choosing where to buy your meds from – try to cling to pharmacies that have already made a good name for themselves, such as USDrugs. Always make sure that your online drugstore is a licensed one.
Please, don’t be indifferent to the questions of your own health – choose qualitative meds!

But, any moron can tell that it’s not real. For example, “Dear valued member” should be followed by a comma, or maybe a colon, but never a period. The first sentence should be two, and there should be a period after “Department”, and “Please” should begin a second sentence.
No government office would abbreviate “medicines” to “meds”; and “try to cling” sounds like a bad translation into English of something. “USDrugs” is a url in the email, linked to a random server in Hong Kong—“http://
And, “qualitative meds”? What does that even mean? They’re trying to imply “quality”, but what they’ve said is “meds which can be ranked by their quality”, not that the meds have any quality. As long as the medicines they’re selling can be ranked at all ( even very poorly ) they’re “qualitative meds”.
And, the kicker. The return address is at topless-amateurs.com. I can’t tell you how pleased it makes me that the nice folks in the topless amateurs industry are taking valuable time out of their days, typically filled with the tedious task of videotaping the topless for our enjoyment, to send out warnings about dubious online pharmacies which themselves recommend dubious online pharmacies.
