No Bullshit!! No Lies!! - Really?

Normally I just delete spam, I don't follow it up, but this is the nastiest one I've seen for a while. When I scrolled to the bottom of the list I found this:

"You have received this email because you have DOUBLE optioned to receive a free porn membership through a partners website and agreed to accept adult offers and specials."

I have NEVER opted into anything using that email address. I guess it was harvested from ICQ. I removed it a long time ago, but I suppose it's still in circulation on spammers lists.

What REALLY annoyed me was this threat:

"If you deny these facts and decide to complain to our ISP or upstream provider we will take the time out to respond with our database confirmation of your opt in entry and post your personal information/email address to a public message board of "Know Porn Surfing Scammers" which is allowed under the terms and conditions of which you agreed."

This "you opted into this..." bullshit has to stop.
