Re: Are there aliens amongst us?

It doesn't surprise me one little bit.

Here's another tidbit of strangeness.
We talked about spam on the board before, and I am getting the strangest stuff addressed to me BY NAME flawlessly spelled - and I have one of those weird french-dutch unpronounceable names!!

They offer me medicines, dates and porn, and they all know my name.

The funny thing is that when I created my email, I never once gave it out to anyone I didn't trust. I didn't use it to sign up for anything ever, and I kept track of my outgoing messages well.

And still the spam, addressed to me by name, arrived.

They have us where they want us. We cannot win, we cannot fight back. I get the most explicit stuff in my inbox, and it's not always on my mind, you know!

It may not be aliens, but I do think the spammers, and the Beltway are playing a game of cat and mouse. I think the roles change from time to time. Between them, they have a lot of spy technology. We are caught in the middle.

PS can anyone recommend a great spam killer for mac os X?
