I've always found spam fascinating, since so much of it is utterly unbelievable. I got this one today, and just had to share it.

Dear sir/mm,
I am sending you this e-mail with greetings to you and your whole
company. My name is Mr. James I would like to make an inquiry based on your
Standing Light . I would like for you to give me the price


If you do I want you to kindly get back at me at your earliest time with
the price for the products because I need the order for these Standing Light
to be placed as soon as possible. i am Ordering to my new company in Ghana
.And also i will lie to use my credit car for the payment and i have my
freight company that will sip to me .I will look forward hearing from you as
soon as possible with the price for the Standing Light.

Thank youveymuch...
SincereYours,
Mr. James
Let's see. Quirky capitalization, a nebulous request for "products" that are sometimes called "Standing Light," and they will "lie to use [their] credit car". Not to mention a freight company that will "sip" to them, the quirky line breaks, or the peculiar valediction "SincereYours".

Seriously? People respond to this?

You should respond that it is $50 dollars each and that the minimum they can purchase is 100 because you only sell in bulk.
