I started getting very short emails, such as "How are you?" or "please. can we talk please?" Ok,
what to reply if not ? :=)
maybe the latter one is a bit suspicious.
sender try to verify that email exists, and are willing to talk and play, payload comes later
But in any event, has anyone encountered "small talk" spam emails like this before?
have seen it always for spam
I have this big desire to respond and say "No, I'm not fine, and we can't talk".
now spammers know your email address exists, and thay harwaste more meta data on replys to try misuse later
But I doubt that will resolve the issue. :)
want to know more ?
I'm just curious if anyone else has encountered this. Thanks. - Mark
being on mailling lists is good, help spammers is not good
