Spam of the Future

1 point

In 'A Plan For Spam', PG talks about how the spam of the future will have to be decidedly unspammy to get past bayesian filters.

I think I just got one:

"Am Vincent Cheng, GBS, JP Chairman of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited.I have a sensitive, confidential brief and I ask for your partnership in.Get back to me for more information."

It has amazingly good grammar (for a spam message).

Of course, the from/reply-to still gives it away:

  from: Vincent Cheng <[email protected]>
  reply-to: [email protected]
