Why Spam ads! (?)

All the time I keep receiving all these spam adverts in my mail box. They confuses and annoys me with what is and what is not to be thrown away since some of my legit emails goes to the spam mailbox.

They all come in different varieties and forms and I'd like to keep a memory/documentation of them in this blog. Emails informing that I won in a lottery or asking for help about wealth that needs to be deposited to my bank account number. Some of the naive had fallen victims to this scam, giving their bank account number and paying fees.

Some ads about enlargement of schlongs and dongs, (how do they know I need enlargement, hahahaha !), others promoting viagra ( sorry I think am passionate enough to need some) etc., etc.

Well one commentator said that these ads are written very creatively, and he is wondering why some of these good writers had fallen to these kind of technical-creative writing exploits. Well they are marketing a product so they need to catch attention of their readers.

For me these spam emails are wealth of vocabulary, a source of inspiration, a supply of entertainment but most of the time indeed they are nuisance. So adding to spam on the net - is a blog about spam.

So for those who like and enjoys Spam and for authorities to find out who they this is the blog to read.
