In the not too distant future, five minutes from now, AD …
So I received another new spam mail at myrealname@realdomain.tld – not unusual. I and my family get such a massive ton of spam at our email addresses at realdomain.tld that we hardly even use them anymore (and yes, sibs, I will nuke and reset things soon!).
But this spam was unusual: it got through Gmail’s spam filters, which are pretty darn good. I read the first line, clicked the “PHISHING!” button* Gmail has, and forgot about it.
Then I got it AGAIN. This time, sent to realnaem@realdomain.tld, my other email address.
Amusing in two ways:
1. It was sent to, and only to, my siblings at their correct realname addresses.
2. It was sent from (apparently) one of my real name siblings. Well, at least seemingly from his address – we called him lots of names growing up, but Brittaney wasn’t one of them.
3. It was sent from FIVE MINUTES IN THE FUTURE.
Forget getting through my layers of spam-filters; I wanna live where it’s five minutes from now. I don’t think I can reach the Satellite of Love from there, but maybe I can live in the Mezzanine of Thinks You’re Kinda Cute and watch bad YouTube clips.
*yes, I know it’s not a button, it’s a link. And it’s gone now. I miss the PHISHING! link so …
