                                    Call me!
                                        
Some spam, if it can be called that, confuses me. This is one of them:

> **From:** <eddie@XXXXXXXXXX>
>  **To:** <sean@conman.org>
>  **Subject:** where are you, man ?
>  **Date:** Sun, 9 May 2004 01:34:31 +0000
>  
> 
> We need to talk, ASAP (As Soon As Possible). Call me.
> 

That's it. “We need to talk, ASAP. Call me.” No salutations, no name (other
than “Eddie”), no phone number.

I don't know anyone named Eddie. Ed, yes (an uncle), but no one from the
domain of XXXXXXXXXX, and most certainly no Eddie. I checked the domain out,
and it's registered to an Eddie Zhao of Brooklyn, New York, and the site
points to a Yahoo store [1] that currently doesn't exist, and the IP
(Internet Protocol) address in the email comes from Japan. So if this guy is
trying to sell me something, he's doing a rather poor job of it.

“Call me.”

Call you?

Idiot.
