I just checked my e-mails. There was an e-mail from some guy I never heard of, and the subject line said 'quarter earnings conference call. The message was spam about Canadien minerals or something. I currently have four e-mail addresses for different reasons; and on every one of them I get this type of stuff coming through.
Beside the fact that I don't really want to increase the size of my you know what, or use viagra, or buy minerals from Canada; why in the world would these people assume that by misrepresenting their address and the subject of the message, I would want to buy anything from them?
Are there really people out there who blindly respond to these type of messages and give their credit card information? That's rhetorical; of course there are really ignorant people who do this kind of thing. The con-artists wouldn't be continuing to do it if it didn't work. It's the same as junk mail you get through the postal service. You wouldn't respond yourself; but people do, and the companies sending know that it's a numbers game where they come out ahead, even after mailing costs.
The people that respond to this stuff are the same people who think that soap operas are real, or that call the National Park Service and tell them to remove deer crossing signs because they're located in dangerous spots on the road, or don't want the airlines to put them in a window seat because they just had their hair done. (these are true) How some of these people function in life is beyond belief.
I'm done. I'm gonna check out one of those sites that will help me grow my you know what. I always did want a bigger investment portfolio. (hah, got ya didn't I)

What's really scary is that the same sort of people send me the same ads for increasing the size of my you know what, and I don't even have a you know what!
Why don't they have the same kind of saturation e-mailing for increasing the size of your bust? You never see those.
