You're a mean one, Satan Lucas (they forgot to anagram "Claus," so I did it for them ).

Great mail, I had no idea owning a Windows product was supporting Satan in a 7-degrees sort of way. Something they seemed to overlook: by their logic, buying ANYTHING as a Christmas present would be supporting Satan. Guess they didn't think that through

I should check the spam folder in my email address more often...on top of the spam that just goes into my inbox.

Funny email though, though I would love to see the holidays and Windows 8 being part of 2012 End of the world thing...

The only spam I've really gotten as of late are fake messages that pretend to be from JAGEX and Blizzard:

The links in the e-mails instead go to a phishing site. The "From" field of both are dubious Yahoo! accounts. The best part is I don't have an account with either.
