Sometimes spammers are just plain idiotic. I got this spam designed to look like it was sent by Facebook. It was sent to my email address. I am not on Facebook, but my Facebook name would not necessarily be my email address. However I supposedly had notifications for my email address. All that I had to do was click the link (yeah right).
The absolutely hilarious part was the unsubscribe at the bottom. Here is the notice in its entirety:
This notification was sent to <my email address>.com. If you don't want to receive these notifications from Facebook in the future, please unsubscribe. Facebook, Inc., Attention: Department 415, PO Box 10005, Palo Alto, CA 94303
That means I have to send a letter by snail mail -- regular post to Facebook to unsubscribe from their electronic notices. Idiots.
I do notice that most of my spam now comes to my Yahoo mail account. Google is quite adept at filtering it out.
