Hello! I am bored this afternoon. I am nice girl that would like to chat with you. Email me at [email protected] only, because I am using my friend's email to write this. Hope you wanna see my pics.
They always say the same thing with a redirect to a diffrent email address.
thanks
Sid

"Hope you wanna PAY TO see my pics."

That's how it should read. It'll point you to a pay site for you to see her pics, or even see her webcam.

Thanks for the quick response. Thats what I thought it was. When I back trace the ip it comes back to China and the domain for the email address just brings up a simple index.php that asks for a user name and pass word. It would be nice to find out what list I got on and get off it it. For the most part I have been just deleting the emails.
