Default Would you take up this invitation?

I received this email earlier recommending I spend my cash at a website I've never heard of from a person I don't know - I'll save you the details of the website but thought you might get a kick out of the seductive text:

Glad to me to you.
Come on my dear! I find a nice website for you......They sell many top brand items as Louis Muitton, Bottega eneta, Salvafove fevagamo and so on. More 2011 for New fashions in mens and womans. Shopping on here can get free shipping and GIFT as the payment way is paypal or credit card.

Congratulations and a many hearty handful of hands.


Sounds good, huh?

A few years ago I would have guessed that they were using an online translation service like Google translate, but most of those have now improved to the extent that they probably do a better job than that ...

It arrived in my work email inbox which is odd given they usually filter it out at source.

I'm seriously thinking of using that on my work email sig line instead of the trusty old "Best regards".
