Interesting tidbit

Hopefully this hasn't generated a dozen threads already, but it is new to me, and I thought I would pass it on.

The worst thing about this finding is that spammers have already started using it in their junk as just another way to get around word filters. I`ve had several like this that they attempted to send me recently. Of course it never gets near me but that`s beside the point.

But honestly - if someone filtered those words so e-mails containing them would be deleted, what makes the senders of the new obfuscated e-mails think that they would suddenly change their mind and want to purchase the whateveritis this time round? I will *never* understand spammers....

Excuse the off-topicdness, but the spam-to-genuine-mail ratio here is rising again and it`s getting to me.....

I just think you guys have seen Roth type too much.

First and last letter huh? HA !!!!!!
You just have 2 letters that make a word, just stuck in a mess of letters and I can read it now. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif

The sad thing is, he will read this thread, and complain that he couldnt understand it. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
The bad thing is, he will use this as an excuse not to even attempt to type correctly. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ohgeez.gif

This kinda reminds me of spead reading. Wonder how they do that. ? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thinking.gif

All you had to do was type some keywords in the search engine. Like codnutced, or Cmabrigde. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
