Spam of the Day

I just received this from one “Nitai Gouranga”, whose email address is nitaigouranga@aol.com:

Call out Gouranga be happy!!!

Gouranga Gouranga Gouranga ….

That which brings the highest happiness!!

I dunno, it doesn’t have the same ring as Badger Badger Badger.

  • This link may explain a bit more about the Gouranga thing... It's a Hare Krishna phrase, and the gamers know about it from Grand Theft Auto...

  • Seriously ... I just got one too (this morning), thought I would share. In searching for "nitai gouranga", this was one of the top hits.

    Email was from same sender, but headers are spoofed. It actually came from somewhere in london (80.47.87.60).

  • I got the same message

    and here are my headers ù
