OK, everyone knows that spam (the email kind, not the canned meat product) is evil. Here's a thought, though...spam may serve a purpose!
For example, consider the following text, which is copied from the body of an unsolicited email I received recently:
Dear Home Owner,
After resolving the canvas we are elated to put forward to you as we will specify,
Your current mortgage meets the criteria to get more than a 3.7 lessened tariff!
------------------------------------------------------------------
!! FINDING THE BEST RATES IN THE US IS OUR SPECIALITY !!
------------------------------------------------------------------
It followed up with a web site link that would presumably allow you to collect on this great deal. Here's my thought, though. If someone falls victim to a sales pitch like this, they might just have it coming. It's 'natural selection' via email.
