Lame Spam of the Day: Poker Associates

Robert Weiner

This spam is typical of "you've won the lottery" scams. I'm mostly tickled by the sender's name. Would you bet on Poker Associates? There's no link or attachment, so one would have to reply to test@xiaoyinmu.com -- wouldn't that cause some concerns? Sender: POKER ASSOCIATES (test@xiaoyinmu.com). Subject: RE:THIS IS FOR YOUR ATTENTION. Text: POKER ASSOCIATES.

Lame spam of the day: pizza order

Robert Weiner

This one was entertaining. Apparently I ordered $93 worth of pizza from "Pizza by ARMO" (which looks like a variant of Pizza by GEROLAMO). I must have been hungry. Fortunately, the message has the helpful line, "If you haven't made the order and it's a fraud case, please follow the link and cancel the order." According to this post that link would download malware.
