Custom Spam

Monday, February 14. 2005

Tonight I got hit with a custom spam. Somebody actually took the time to fill out my custom contact form and submit it. The content contained a pyramid scheme with names and addresses.

Update 2007-01-12:The apology below looks legitimate, so I'm removing the specific contact information from this entry.

hello mike,

I am truly sorry for posting on your website, I heard about this pyramid thing where you can make alot of money online and I went of posting on everybody's forums.

I truly am sorry, And If you could that would be nice if you took my city and state and name off your website.

I would like to personally apologize and I truly am sorry I need to make some money and I had NO CLUE what I was doing.

I am sure that you wouldn't expect to hear from me and most people wouldn't apologize but I want to be better than that and not known as someone who uses others websites without their permission.

I would tell you my website but I'm afraid you would try to get me in trouble and I don't really like trouble.

So...

God bless and please forgive me,

Sincerely,
David

Fair enough. I have removed the contact info from the blog entry.
