Dear Spammers,

Josh Colter · Feb 16, 2010 · 4 Comments

Dear Thinnish Becker and Rudolph Propos,

I don’t want your lists of 120k finance professionals, 4.8 million new businesses, or 150k criminal attorneys. Unless something recently changed with the United States legal system and defense attorneys are now miraculously requesting online Magento ecommerce stores, then I’m not sure why you thought I would need your services. Please remove me from your list.

And Jerry (if that is your real name),

I’m not interested in your Chinese textile manufacturing offer. I believe you when you say the polar fleece blankets, 100% polyester curtains, and coral fleece bathrobes that are produced in your Jiangsu Province manufacturing facility are made by skilled workers at a competitively low price. It’s just that nothing about my business requires textile manufacturing at the moment. Have you tried the people who make snuggies yet? A snuggy seems like the perfect combination of your three specialties.

Now Mr. David Barnet Bradle,

You may send my swiss lotto winnings of 750k euros to the red cross relief program for Haiti. Please consider this my official approval to do so – no need to get any of my personal banking information.

Sincerely Yours,

Josh Colter

    Ha. Good stuff. Far more entertaining than the Magento Best Practices search that brought me here, although that is good too.

    Glad to provide an entertaining distraction. Hope you found everything you were looking for with Magento too.
