thats not even my email address, so why did i randomly get this very random, email??, theres no attachments or anything, so its purpose is a bit

If a spam filter uses a scoring system the use of common non spam'ish words can cancel out the spammy words.

Whoever put that one together is obiously an amateur.

StickyMicky

yes but if its spam, there not advertiseing anything and theres no links to anything else?

JackClark

Yup, hence my assumption that it's put together by a beginner or someone just playing about.
