Today's Special SPAM

This one's a rich one... the first bit of social-engineering is infering that it's someone that I've forgotten about / communicated with a while ago (strike 1). Oh, but then we have a new twist... (at least, I hadn't heard this one before)... she was out of town caring for her mom. Social-engineering attempt #2 and #3 in a single-sentence. #2 is the attempt to justify social-engineering attempt #1 by providing a possible reason that you hadn't heard from the sender in so long, and #3 is the attempt to make you think they're a caring person.

It gets predictable from there on... paragraph #2 is the standard "I'm a nice looking gal who doesn't care about looks", while paragraph #3 is the standard hook (here's where you can go to see my pictures). One twist on this one, the sender says she doesn't *think* they charge when you sign up for the site.

Too tired at the moment to bother looking up all the different domains mentioned (babe-mail.net, realhotpersonals.com, Wycom Systems, mailcleaner.org). But suffice it to say, this one is pure spam.

Subject: Are you still out there?

Hello, my name is Jenifer, I recieved a reply from you a while back and never replied because I was out of town taking care of my Mom, It took a long time, but she's better so I can get on with my life.

I'm looking for a fun guy, who isn't too possesive or who isn't going to get all too serious. I'm really looking for a playpal. I'm 5'5" and have brown hair with blond highlights, I have what i think is a good body, so as you can see i'm not hard to look at, I'm looking for a guy thats fun and looks are not criticly important.

I have a picture online at a free site that you can see, do you have one I can see of you somewhere? Or maybe you can post one at the site I'm on, I don't think they charge, or you can send me one.The site is called www.realhotpersonals.com and my handle is jenifer342.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Jenifer
