Spam of the Future

1 pointsby Xichekolasover 15 years ago
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.<p>I think I just got one:<p>"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."<p>It has amazingly good grammar (for a spam message).<p>Of course, the from/reply-to still gives it away:<p><pre><code> from: Vincent Cheng &#60;ctruitt79@sbcglobal.net&#62; reply-to: chengmr.vincent65@yahoo.com.hk</code></pre>
