Spam lesson

Below is an image of an email i got. Spam. Very common these days.

The interesting thing is the "Montgomery" part.
Not long ago i mailed a new friend, and this person's last name is Montgomery.
Now I get spam from a "Montgomery", with an email addy that has nothing to do with "Montgomery".

I have a pretty good hunch about how this happened:
- My friend has a pc with Windows
- My friend's computer is a "zombie"-spam-relay-station
- My friend's last name is used by whatever "agent" is using her computer for sending spam, probably to more easily bypass MY spam-filter(ing eyes).

Do not ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it.
Because what the world needs is people who have come alive!
