I don't understand...

I don't understand how anyone with a shred of common sense can open this e-mail. It's a very simple formula... if you don't know the person = delete the e-mail.

As for the particular spam e-mail at hand... I got one yesterday. My ISP used to have a decent SpamFilter in place. They upgraded their mail server software and the filter broke and no one has bothered to fix it. I love getting 400 e-mails a day from Ñ.Ñ. Ãîðøåíèí and Ô.Ô. Áóéëîâ... it makes me feel so special.

I think one thing you folks don't understand is that there are new computer users every day. They've had their computer for a whole week and are just getting their first run of emails, so they're going to open them thinking, "Maybe this is important!" I see them all the time, and I do tell them that if it's not an expected email, just delete it, but that doesn't always work, you see.
