A very verbose Nicky

Whilst going through the spam queues today I met Nicky.

Nicky is yet another lonely Russian girl, bless her heart. I can’t help but wonder if a few years down the line we’re going to get a flood of lonely Russian boy emails once they realise all the lasses have upped and left.

Nicky is a little different to our usual breed of lonely Russian though, we see the likes of Veronica a lot, and her emails are always very direct. She’s lonely, she likes you, get in there. Nicky is a little more verbose. I’m tempted to paste her email in its entirety here for you to enjoy, but I’m not sure how many of you would make it to the end. Nicky likes a chat. If it wasn’t for the fact that it’s quiet here this weekend I wouldn’t have had time to get anywhere near the end of her mail. 

“so im happy to be single again… feels soo liberating..my ex was an IDIOT… sucks for him cause he only realized how good i was to him after im broke up with him.. its such a good feelign to do whatever i want and not answer to someone… i am anxious to see you and hang out and all that… I also really need to find a REAL job once i move there.. can u help? i could work as a waitress or bartender ideally somewhere.. i think that suits me best and the hours would be good for me too.. so u wanna know more about me? well.. leo, enjoy the beach, clubs, shopping, long baths, cuddling, renting movies.. i also play wiht myself a lot lol..”

In a slighty different twist to the usual campaign, as well as wanting to get to know you and move in with you, Nicky’s having trouble with her email address, so in order to chat with her and sort out your living arrangements you’ll need to visit her website.

“SORRY if u get my email a bunch of times!! my email is mseeing up… i am having BIG time problems with my computer in general.. its just a piece of crap lol constantly screwing up….since my email keep freezing just come chat em in my chat.room soo much easier.. ill kick out any other chatters once u sign in so its just me and u.. guess what? u will be able to see me also heheh..”

Unfortunately you’re also going to have to register your credit card before you get access, but don’t worry, Nicky won’t charge you…just enter your payment details and place your faith in someone you’ve never met, who’s sent you unsolicited email and is packing her bags to move in with you as we speak. She looks trustworthy…right?

u just login and chat with me… doesnt cost u anythign at all… i mean you have to sign in using your cc but thats just to prove yoru over 18… its the law

Nicky gives the link to her site at the end of her email, which Sophos of course blocks. Not only have we spared you a nasty credit card bill, we’ve also saved you from the endless jabberings of an overfriendly spammer;

“wow did i ever babble a lot in this message already hehe”

Yes. You really did. Points for effort though!
