    SiteSeeker spam crap again

    I find this hilarious because:

    1. I'm #1 on Google for "Web Design Forums"
    2. My URL isn't http://www.turtletips.com/forums/
    3. The URL is a dynamic one the way "she" (i.e., the spambot) found it
    4. Any professional knows that "!!!" never is a sign of being professional.
    5. That's nowhere near close to a thumbnail of my site

    But of course you all have already gotten this one before, I've gotten it several times too. I like the way Outlook blocked at least some of the Javascript/HTML in the message.

    In fact looking closer, isn't part of that background Apple's iTools/.Mac logo? So add copyright violations to the list...

    Yeah I have lots of mails from those guys and how I wish I can blow up their office if I ever find out where it is.

    Then I am going to send them a letter.

    "Hello,

    I have visited Siteseeker's office and noticed that your office is not there anymore. Blah Blah.......

    "

    Well, if you ever make it to Beijing, I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to find.

    You'd probably want to make a long list actually. chinanet is the source of about 80-90% of the spam that I receive at the moment. Seems they must be the new flavor of the month amongst the junk-mail crowd.

    Dya think writing a petition to the Chinese Government is a good idea? We have to make them do something about it.
