Gibberish in Spam Mail

Wed Mar 10 08:33:26 EST 2004

This is an attempt to not be detected by spam filters.  Take an ordinary word
that would not be let through (ie Viagra) and change it to VIa.Gra and throw a
bunch of "noise" (garbled text) and you have an e-mail that may get through a
lax spam filter - one that defaults to allow through text that can't be
positively  id'd as spam.  

Dirty rotten son of a &%%^%**'s they just keep changing the text and hoping one
out of 10000 get through.  

That's the whole point.
