Ever wonder what the spammer had in mind at the point of hitting the send key? The Answer Is… nothing. The letter you received was the result of a script that used nests of “round robin” routines to differentiate messages enough to evade detection by anti-spam devices. We dug up this specimen at ahmedabad.com, Gateway to Gujarat:

Dear user {$t|of $T},{ {{M|m}ail {system|server} administrator|administration} of $T would like to {inform you{ that{:|,}|}|let you know {that|the following}{.|:|,}}|||||} {We have {detected|found|received reports} that y|Y}our {e{-|}mail |}account {has been|was} used to send a {large|huge} amount of {{unsolicited{ commercial|}|junk} e{-|}mail|spam}{ messages|} during { this|the {last|recent}} week. {We suspect that|Probably,|Most likely|Obviously,} your computer {had been|was} {compromised|infected{ by a recent v{iru}s|}} and now {run|contain}s a {trojan{ed|}|hidden} proxy server.

Don’t take it personally. With spammers, it’s never, ever personal.
