    Started getting some sneaking through my work e-mail spam filter over the past few days.

    No links to things to make me love longer time or fake diplomas, just gibberish.

    What is it and why do people send it?

    LOL@ Steve Austin

    Just 3 or 4 seemingly unrelated words. Seems to be plain text so no hidden HTML or anything. Quite odd.

    Not long enough to be vogon poetry. Unless I am going to get hundreds of them to make the whole poem up!

    It’s a test to see if you read it. If you do, it sends a read receipt to the sender to show the address is active and then you get more spam. Prosaic but true. 🙁
