Today, I got a spam message that managed to get through the spam filter, and because I was using webmail at the time, it opened up automatically in the preview window.
Now, I work with Microsoft technology every day, but I might think of ordering someting in this shop... Appearantly, they have a very special version of SQL Server, namely SQL Server 2006 Special Edition.
Must be a really special edition then... I wonder if I'd get my money back if it turns out to be a 2005 version after all...
I guess these people really are pathetic and stupid at the same time. I hope the day will come that spam like this really can disappear completely, and those responsible for creating all the overhead will be put on trial. In the end, it's "the little guy" who does not know any better that is the real victim of these scams.
