From The Spamfiles

It’s that time again!

Spam message from Pittsburgh Mechanic Tool Set Confir dot mation, followed by a thirty nine character long email address.
For some reason, this one did not get caught by the spam filter in spite of the email address, which is thirty nine random characters long. Because that’s a totally normal address to have.

Message from Harbor Freight, or rather Har dot bor fre dot ight, asking for my order confirm dot ation
Yes, periods in between words for toolsets I didn’t order is totally normal.
 
Message from Lume Deodorant Ad, saying When Your Butt Doesn’t Smell Like Butt, one hundred twenty five thousand five star reviews and counting
When your butt doesn’t smell like butt is time to worry.

Spam from PornHub, saying Confirmation Of Your E-Mail Address, to validate your account
You can tell it’s spam because it calls it “e dash mail” instead of email like a normal person.

Text message I received from evzqyvjl at Hotmail, saying my USPS package has arrived at the warehouse and cannot be delivered due to incomplete address information. It gives me a link to “confirm my address” and tells me to copy it into my browser
Yes, the USPS absolutely sends a text from a Hotmail account full of random letters.

    No, the USPS just returns to sender. Sadly, I have personal experience with this. Well, not me, but the roommate had an address issue, and two hours and five phone calls later, she gave up trying to get the USPS to send it back to her with the corrected address.
