An Apt Subject
Spam emails often play on the fact that people will see a common name, with a typical email type subject. One of my email accounts just started being spammed, after over 2 1/2 years of keeping it clean. Most of the emails look like they might be related, very often with subjects like Re:, or Sorry for taking so long to respong with the hopes that you might glaze over the fact that the name is unfamiliar, and nowadays, often quite unusual. I remember a Language Log post on this, I'll post a link if I can find it. So, the email I received (which I will not be opening as it is potentially a pandora's box of worms) was authored with a relatively uncommon name, and had no space between the middle initial and the surname.
