Just wrong

I received a spam message that was set up to look like it was from my father (it had his first initial/last name as the sender)... my father died almost thirteen years ago. That's really not nice. :(

Good Lord! How does that even happen?! That is disturbing and horrible. I'm sorry you had to see that.

Spammers have no heart.

That's bloody awful. Do you think it was a weird coincidence? Horrible all the same. xxx

Eh. I doubt it was a coincidence b/c my last name is not very common here. I think someone matched up public records and set it up - probably thinking the recipient would be more likely to open it/install whatever BS they sent.

Still. Not cool! :(

I may joke about ghosts on my blog, but this post just gave me the creeps. That is wrong on so many levels.

That is nasty, and, as Nilsa said, just plain wrong.

Verification word is "grovele," which sounds like something I would like to see such spammers do.
