Spam Sandwich, anyone?

I opened my email today to see 28 emails..........21 were spam. Interestingly, 9 offered me a cheapy imtiation Rolex Watch, 7 gave me cheap Viagra, 5 gave me the option to purchase stocks and shares at a give away price for next Christmas, and 7 wanted me to learn their secret of how to increase my 'staying power' in bed. Those from Nigeria wanting me to put their money in my bank all seem to have found someone else. Short of the stocks and shares the rest was all geared to me having a sex change and becoming a male to really take advantage of the huge "bargain selection". So I guess I could change sex and take up all these wonderful Christmas offers for increased 'staying power' (at least for a guaranteed few hours apparently!!) while my stocks and shares brought in a lucrative income and I could time them both by wearing my fantastic imitation Rolex that I purchased with the Bank interest from my new Nigerian friend. The problem is being female I wonder why I get bombarded all of a sudden with masculine type emails? So do the male members here get bombarded with feminine aids, underwear, PMT homeopathic tablets and diaper vouchers?

The spammers just have lists of email addresses. They have no more info than that.
When you're sending millions of emails some are bound to get through to someone who might be interested and stupid enough or ignorant enough to respond.

G'Day

Do you mean things like breast enlargement and vagina tightening creams and potions - guaranteed to increase both my and his pleasure! Or perhaps cellulite removal creams and pads - no surgery required - guaranteed to give me the body of a model, increase my self esteem and popularity? Yeah I get them - the big round e-filing cabinet gets them actually. I am male and they are no use to me, even if they were, I would not suggest any of them to my wife, she is a surgeon and good with sharp knives.

As for getting bombarded with masculine type emails - you are not being targeted by gender - the spammers dont know and dont care - they just send the crap to every email address they have. It is probably that you have had your email address added to the list of a spammer that is currently flogging fake "male" orientated products - as well as the usual crap being flogged by other spammers.

Stocks and shares in viagra companies will be next !

I wonder if spamming has changed in recent weeks as my spam filter was perfect before but now regularly lets in spam.

Have they altered the way they send them or have they struck deals with email hosts...ooh conspiracy !?
