I just got this email:

<SPAM snipped and dropped on the slaughterhouse floor.>

Obviously a hoax. It looks like a bot got my address from somewhere- any other
lugnetters get this one? I think it may have been from here because one
is "lego". I think a 'bot because one still has a spamblock in it.

Just curious. I sent Nicole a nice message about how there has yet to be one
of these that wasn't a hoax- if it wasn't Bill Gates would have sent me to
Disney World and Miller would have sent me a six pack of beer!

Funny, because I just got SPAMmed today for the first time in a loooong time.
(Not the same message, though.)  I've actually been quite impressed at how
immune LUGNET appears to be from SPAM-bots, since I haven't SPAM-blocked my e-
dress in many months here.  Maybe they're finally catching on to us?

Definitely a hoax, though.  You'd think the idiots who start these stupid
"social virus" chain letters would at least think of an original scam to pull.
