Spam isn't all bad

I don't usually read emails that get caught in the spam filter.  I just check the sender and subject line quickly because sometimes proper emails get caught in there.  In the process of deleting the spam emails, one always gets displayed in the preview pane.  This one caught my eye before I hit delete, and made me laugh;


My name is Sabrina Howell. I'm happy to write to you.

I am 21 years old.
We were introduced by friends, remember?
Well, yesterday we had party with girls and we captured all on video.
I decided to share it with you, find attached in this email.

No Sabrina, I don't remember being introduced by friends, but that's probably my fault, I have a head like a sieve.  I'm glad you thought to mention your age.  That is clearly pertinent information for an introductory email such as this.  I am also 21 by the way.  And if you believe that, you'll believe anything.  Thank you so much for highlighting the most interesting part of your email in red, although somehow I feel you are trying too hard!  I'm glad you are happy to write to me, I am certainly happy to hear from you!
