My first spam

Well, somebody has finally spammed my kcm -at- interocitor.com address. Guess that " -at-" stuff doesn't work so well. The spam? Here's the start:

First, I must solicit your strictest confidence in this transaction, this is by virtue of its nature as being utterly confidential and top secret.

We are top officials of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation....
Sigh, and here I was hoping for something original. BTW, SpamAssassin scored it 17.5

I think those Nigerian scam spammers actually read the email addresses on sites sometimes because I have gotten *one* similar spam at my email address on my blog. I sent a reply telling the spammer that I reported the spam to the FBI and the FTC (which I did) and so far I've not gotten any more spam from Nigerian spammers. Send your spam to uce@ftc.gov. The FTC is collecting evidence against these scammers.
