spam a lot
i normally don't get spam in my work email inbox. it's email offered through our ISP, strictly for work related stuff and i've been lucky not to get slammed the way yahoo and hotmail usually does.
anywhoo, i recently noticed that i'd get these annoying spam emails that were all very similar in content . they 'd arrive about once a day and they had to do with buying stock or someshit, so i set up message rules in outlook to send them straight to the trash when they'd come in. blocking senders doesn't work because they are always from different sources.
so great, that's fixed. except after a couple days i noticed that the message rules weren't working. these emails would still get though to my inbox even though words in the body of the emails were listed in the rules.
you know what it is? those fuckers put their content in a jpeg so the program can't recognize any of the words in it and apply the message rules that were set up.
sneaky bastards.
