I always go through my GMail spam and manually trash them, just in case something got put in there by accident. After all, artificial intelligence really isn't. (Intelligence that is. It's definitely artificial).
Sometimes they are good for laughs.
Like the one that I allegedly got from an Oregon credit union with a subject of "Correct you'r information". As if I'm going to join a credit union that can't use proper grammer.
And then I realize that some time that I don't remember that I must have gone to Oregon and joined a credit union out there.
C'mon scammers: at least learn proper grammer with your ill-gotten gains. There are dozens of English lessons that you can buy.

This is one for the D'oh awards.
