NEW!! You got the spam, now get the shirt!
(Reprinted verbatim, from a spam I got… I guess at least some spammers have a sense of humor. Perphaps it’s a byproduct of the penis-enlargement pills!)

Yeah I got this email too, just today. Did you go to the website?
they never answer me and or say wrong name etc. i dont know why they send me email and then say invalid or wrong.
I’ve received the above several times also. Here’s their newest. My guess is they have purchased or harvested a mailing list from businesses that recruit work-from-home people?

I received the same above e-mail this morning
I got it today: I sent a copy to the fbi
I love how I’m the number 1 search result for this on google now. Way to go everyone! =)
Yeah, at least now I know about this. I’d gone to the website and was afraid somehow they’d gotten my credit card information. Glad I’m not the only one and I can start deleting those.
Well, I got another one of these today. I expect my website traffic to pick up soon! Remember web-surfers. If you came for the “Dark Profits” stay for the pie!
I just got the one in which they ask for the credit card #. The idiots can’t even spell.
Within three days I have received two emails from Dark Profits, with the same spiel: my credit card is going to be charged $22.95 weekly, and a free 3-pack of child porn CD is shipping to my billing address. “To cancel your membership and CD pack please email full credit card details to cancel @darkprofits.com.” (It doesn’t work.)
I took this to be a (to me naÔve) way of collecting credit card numbers, to be used for other purposes.
One of the emails came via home.nl (in Holland), the other via Videotron, which is in Montreal. The message ID was from cis.net, which is in West Virginia.
I don’t find it amusing. I have launched an official complaint with all three service providers
Well it looks like the web’s destroyer of all things urban legend has finally tracked this one down. Check out Snopes dissection of the Dark Profits spam. Cheers!
would someone tell me how ping -a for dark profits resolves to loopbak address
