Jul. 26th, 2006 07:54 pmI got home today to be told, "You got a letter!"
"Yay! That never happens!" I bounce over to the table where the letter is and pick it up. Hmm. Don't recognize the handwriting on the envelope, and there's no return address. I tear it open. Inside, there's a sheet of printed newsprint with a postie note on it. It says something like "check this out. J" and all the articles on the newsprint are about the same thing: some so-called financial opportunity.
It's spam. Spam masquerading as personal mail, just like I get everyday in my email inbox. Now it's attacking through the letterbox.
