I don't get a lot of spam e-mail and sometimes the sender and topic are close enough to e-mails I might expect that I open them. (Though I use elm so they're not even getting webhit counts for their embedded images or anything)
Anyhow. Today's is apparently a weight loss drug... At least I guess that's what it is. Their advertisement is so bad that I can't really guess its true nature. But here's the line that stood out:
the most enchanting flesh loss product is now readily available
.... Um... Eeew! If I thought it wouldn't bounce, I'd consider writing them back with an advertising slogan:
Zombo-goo! It's good for you!
EDIT: Reading a little further, the ad starts going on about The Hunger and the cravings. I really think this might be a zombie med. Here's a bit more:
I greedily devoured all this garbige
and just could not stop.
This ruinous passion passed away after I started course with *PRODUCT!
Oh, God,
my inclination to eat constantly vanished,
*I hate spammers so much I'm not even going to give them the benefit of name spreading by copying their product name while ridiculing them.

Zombie-goo! The amazing new product that improves your productivity, increases your profits and, best of all, staves off any uprisings.

Now, if only I can wedge it into iambic pentameter.
Oooh! Oooh! Even better! We need to combine spam!

Feeling down after being bitten on the street earlier?
Not able to prepare a full meal because your friends are busy hammering wooden planks over the windows and doors?
Maybe Zombo-Goo is for you."
