Korean spam still tastes the best

04/27 2004 – Evereone reading this site knows how I feel about spam and the scumbag spammers who fill my mail system and use up valuable bandwidth. It all boils down to a distinct feeling pretty close to hatred.

Still, there is something special about Korean spam. The cartoon style, the fact that I really have no idea what they want to sell me, the colors, and the fact that these are the onle well designed spam mail I get.

Just look at this (click the image for a larger view):

Another thing I really like about Korean spam is that I don’t ever see them. 99% of the Korean spam mails go straight into my Spam box, and the only time I actually view them is when I go into that mailbox to select all and hit delete.

Anyway, as always when I publish spam. Here are the headers (minus my addresses):
