I just got a piece of spam from someone who claims to need help on how to post to Usenet. It could, theoretically, be a genuine message (though it would be odd to tell someone your age in such a request), but the headers have all sorts of spammy fingerprints all over them, in addition to this same message (with different From email addresses) being listed on the Usenet spam sighting group, in Razor and in DCC.
I'm puzzled as to what this spam is hoping to do. Gain the user's trust by posing as a clueless newbie, then use that trust to scam them? -- Give a man a match, and he'll be warm for a minute, but set him on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
