...Lobster thermidor and Spam.
You know, no matter how many super-spam-blocking-phishing-elimination-wonder-email-clients I use, I still seem to get the occasional "There's a problem with your order" emails from places I've not actually ordered anything from. Mainly because I've maxed out my credit cards, so even if I wanted to order something (like from Sephora, for instance) I couldn't. Or some guy in Africa that needs me to take some money from one account and transfer it to MY account, and he'll give me 30% of US $4,000,000. Nice. Except if I'm going to do that, it's got to be a 60-40 split in my favor, or it's no dice. Oh, and I would insist that they update their request to use the current year instead of 2006 and also to run a spellchecker. Seriously, the spellchecker is the deal-breaker there.
Good thing I'm too smart to fall for those scams.
I could email the African guys and ask them to say gullible really slowly, and if they can make it sound like green beans, then I'll help them out, no prob.
