Spam email never ceases to confuse me

Panda

Alright, Is it just me or does everyone get spam emails that make close to NO sense?

I got this one today and for the life of me, I can't tell what it's supposed to be about, even if it was in broken English:

Industry subtract what kill talk center. Noise least apple teach carried plane last important treat. Words road was through condition tire sand. Door here were probable up other plant map. Deep catch division power wood busy help lake regard. Occur now earth beauty translate cough mention together. Yes slave operate very are space. Suggest lone duck effect climb wrote cough argue sent. Dad afford modern felt accept happen strange then enjoy. Arrange worry fail arrive sing work string. Side carry stop spot seem at their reason. Child himself law weather job land ask about magnet. Push other against noun himself plant sun farm. Difficult show lived show. Engine there opened suggest. Wire subtract past band important last finish race examine. You reply rather i return center promised. Ask molecule influence job step. Brought enable period trouble still probable present belong children this. Air hole usual were sleep admit crease end may design. Expect operate new you see final current hand.

It's like they used a random word generator or something just to piss me off and fill my inbox.....anyone have any idea what it might be about?

This is a new wave of experimentation in "stream of consciousness" writing. It seems at first just random words, but there are ALWAYS some connections between the words, even if those connections only exist to you or the writer or some other person somewhere. There's nothing random about it.

I'm not sure why a person would put this in a spam email though. It probably is a bunch of random words. Maybe it's a part of a DoS attack or something.

EDIT: That's "Denial of Service", as in they attempt to flood the servers with crap so they are too busy to service real people.

I remember when I posted those emails on IS which were just excerpts from Master and Margarita.

Maybe if you read it out loud, it would sound like something. I'm no good at that kind of thing, though.

Does this e-mail contain hyperlinks of any kind? ...because...there are different kinds of hyperlinks apparently...

<_<

Maybe it's a secret message. Clearly there are spies operating about. You best start learning how to crack codes.

This is more important than your family or your education. Get going.

Was it an HTML e-mail or plain-text? They might have embedded some small images into it so that they can check to see when the files are downloaded, thus determining which e-mail addresses are actually being checked and which ones are just failing to send bouncebacks for some reason.

Matrix Code?

[7 9
5 6]

Did anyone else learn this in school? It's kind of creepy that my math teacher taugh me how to write codes in matrix, now that I think about it.

It was just plain text, as far as I could tell.

It might just be to confuse spam filters and make it easier for future spam messages to make it through.
