I Got My First Spam In Russian

I should've saved the message since it was so weird.

I don't know Russian but I can tell it's Russian when I see it, all the oddball letters.

I don't think I've ever gotten an email in Russian before. Let me search my mind. No, it's never happened.

But today was a first. So naturally I was curious. Not curious enough to click any links, but curious enough to run it through a Google translation place.

And it was Russian for some kind of adult picture place (or something). The translation looked so flawless. Not broken, weird English. So either that thing did a killer job of translating, or they run it through some kind of grammar thing as well.

That was my first Russian spam, and I hope it's my last.
