I just deleted a fowarded email, saying somethig about the FBI scanning all computers for info on iraq or anything, and how iraq were using our computers to store hidden secret files, and there was a link to some 'free' download that makes the affiliate like $1/signup... it's like the MS sends you 1000bucks if you foward it to xx people, you see tons of emails in the message cause it was fowarded so many times, and Im sure this guy got hella signups...
and he (or she) probably just sent it out to a few friends, and they sent it out, and htey sent it out etc etc, is this really spam? The guy sent it to his friends, and whatever happens after that is out of his hands right?
