Spam goes yet one step further – spiritual salvation!
We are all accustomed to receiving spam that advertises herbal medicines, designer watches, new mortgages and online degrees – and we are even used to seeing spam that promises ‘quickie’ ordinations for aspiring ministers – but MessageLabs has reported an influx of spam that goes one step further and offers the recipient spiritual salvation.
According to researchers at MessageLabs ‘spiritual spam’ may not push a product of any kind, but may simply urge recipients to accept God into their lives. Some of the messages even provide a prayer that ‘can save you or someone you love’. Perhaps a prayer that can help you to stop spam would be a useful addition.
