Diddo.

I got a whole swath of these too. Funky, but all had the same last name in
the header Audu, but different first names (which only resembled a random
smashing of the keyboard).

It's one of the more bizarre spam-scams I've seen.

Well, we all get spam.  I don't get too much, but I get some!  Today I got
three from the same spammer.

I got six, same text word by word in all of them. I also get a lot of "you
won a trip to Puerto Rico!" e-mails, presumably with the same kind of origin.

So my suspicion suggests that the spider or guy hit Lugnet to get our info.
Just thought I'd let you know!

Thanks - at least I know I'm not alone :-/
