I’ve Seen How the Sausage is Made

Spam. Social Engineering. Everything old is new again.

I've received a lot of new spam today - all with HTML attachments that I'm supposed to be dumb enough to actually click on. They are all about one thing or another. I'm either getting money, or it's something about the softball team, but all try to look like something I'd get - but they all fail to realize that I've seen how this all works, and I'm not about to click on anything I don't know the source of.

What continues to amaze me is the fact that they send this at all. They must get people clicking on them because they send them. So many times...

I just wish I could put my name on some hacker's list that says "Don't even bother...", but then they'd probably just make that the one list they'd try harder on.

Sigh...
