Default The Spam thread

We all get it, whether we want it (0.0000000001%) or don't (99.9999999999999%) so let's use it. Post the most ridiculous/funny/unbelievable/inappropriate/stupid spam message you've received, and let's see how REALLY stupid spammers are.

Here's one I found that ALMOST made me laugh. What I love about this is that they act like it's a conversation between two people who are desperately worried that I'm losing out on a big chance! My own comments are bolded, in red.

Hi there Deryck,

I can see you have signed up with one of our casinos (No I didnt) in the past and didn't claim your welcome bonus... so I've been told by my supervisor to look after you!

To begin with, you will need to click on the below link I have generated for you:
http://casrewards.com/affiliate/refe...57_1_22:dm-pss
(Oh yeah, I'm gonna do THAT! Well, I was only born yesterday...)
Then follow the steps on the page to claim your new €£$500 sign up bonus.

I'm glad to be of service and hope you enjoy the rest of your day! If you have any technical issues don't hesitate to contact our support team.
(Who I'm sure don't exist, as this is purely spam and nothing else)
Kind regards,

CasinoRewards Loyalty Team

Hi,

I've had a look at Deryck's account and i think you're right, it's a shame they'll miss out on a bonus just because they didn't get to chat with you!
(Note that due to the spelling of my name they're unsure if I'm male or female, so they're hedging their bets by referring to "their" instead of "his" or even "her")
Can you do me a favour and get back to Deryck ASAP?

Also what email address have you been trying? I can see two email address entries in the system. Have you tried this one - trollheart@gmail.com ?
(I've only ever had one email address)
Regards

Anthony

Hey Anthony,

Hope you're well. Just a quick mail with regards to one of my existing players - (Never signed up for, or played in, an online casino in my life. Hate the damn things!)I tried to contact a player called Deryck the other day because they never claimed their sign up bonus. (Didn't claim cos I didn't sign up)
I didn't really manage to talk to them and i think it's unfair that they won't get it now! I've had a look at their CasinoRewards account and I think they deserve the €£$500 sign up bonus. (Which is it? If they know me --- or claim they do --- it should be Euros, but they've hedged their bets again --- as they obviously haven't a clue who I am or where I come from --- by putting in Pounds and also Dollars!)

Just wanted to double check with you that I could authorize a new €£$500 sign up bonus for Deryck?

Kind regards,

CasinoRewards Loyalty Team
