Yes I know, not a diary, bitch, bitch, bitch. I don't care.
Have you looked in your spam folder lately? Mine has some great subject lines.
95% of e-mail is supposed to be spam. Think about how much bandwidth that is and 95% of it goes totally ignored, put immediately into spam folders and never seen again. Now that I've gone into my spam folder for the first time in years, I may have to go back regularly. Not for the ads, I don't care about those, but for the subject lines. More on that below.
First though, a related note/question-
I have a website (www.flyingsquidstudios.com) running WordPress software and have a terrible problem with spammer comments despite plug-ins supposed to prevent such things. I do, however, have an idea of why and I'm curious to know if anyone here has similar experiences.
I didn't start getting seriously spammed until the following comment was posted on my blog:
Hey just a heads up, I wanted to let everyone know that Xio Dibin speaks English. I hope I posted in the right location?
It didn't make any sense, but it didn't have any links attached to it or anything, so I approved it anyway. Subsequent searches for 'Xio Dibin' have come up with that exact phrase in comments on WordPress blogs all over the internet.
Could it be that this is some sort of 'tag' that a spammer can apply to websites to lure spambots to them?
Spammers and anti-spam filters are in a continuous battle for supremacy and their technology will always be a step ahead. A lot of their techniques involve attempting to evade such filters using random natural language. Some of them use bits of poetry or from novels, probably taken from sites like Gutenberg.org, and some seem to be adopting a 'let's use the thesaurus' policy to hide what they're spamming in innuendo and euphemism.
And that brings me to the subject lines. These are all actual spam e-mail subject lines from e-mails in my spam folder over just the last week. Of course, there are hundreds I'm omitting, but these few make the whole thing worth sorting through:
