I think these pretty much speak for themselves...
First off, we have one of the dumbest bits of SEO spam I've seen in a long time:
(For those who don't "get it", realize that www.yahoo-inc.com 404s.)
And then one of the weirdest attempts at a blog comment.
Both of these make me question the long-term prospects for the human race. But maybe I've just got a case of the Mondays.

I love the SEO spam ones...
the sad part... the sites the offer have 0 pagerank, 0 alexa, and aren't listed in 1/2 the major engines.
Even worse, I always email them back and say "which site of mine were you talking about, what keywords, and how will you do this? you sent this to an email I use for 40 different websites."
I've sent about 30 of those replies and gotten 0 return emails.
Why spam if you're not going to reply to somebody who even remotely sounds interested?
Hey, "free delivery" and "no questions asked", sounds like a good deal to me :-)
You will not believe the kind of crap I get daily on my blog email. Those you published will be "moderate" comparing to the stuff people send out.
So you're getting Yahoo SEOed? ;-)
Something strange is going on here. I got the exact same comment on my blog a while ago, I distinctly remember the phrase "fat lesbian cows." This is some odd sort of spam, or else a persistent, demented, and highly unoriginal flamer.
"(For those who don't "get it", realize that www.yahoo-inc.com 404s.)"
Hey, someone's gotta lead the 404 keyword results. Might as well be you!
*sigh* my faith in humanity crumbles a little more :)
Case of the Mondays?
I believe you'd get your ass kicked sayin' something like that, man.
saddening. reminds me of the red vs. Blue animation about the difference between life & the internet. Its hilarious and unfortunately oh so true: http://www.ifilm.com/player/?ifilmId=2757765
i like to picture those types of emails as old grandmas in their nylons and nightcaps in their smelly little rooms eating prune treats and snickering as they send off f-bombs to whomever. I know its not true, but it makes me laugh.
The saddest part is that the SEO spam is going out to millions of boxes, and some folk are going to read it.
Whether they believe it or not they are now going to associate SEO with spam... :(
Pity more the poor souls who actually use it. There's gotta be some or it wouldn't be worth the couple of dollar it cost to spam everyone with it - bye bye £169.
Jer, don't bother. These are just nature abnormalities.
I got one of these so called companies in my inbox too. I wrote about them on my blog, and then I got about 500 e-mails (flood) on my mail. It was the same IP as their website's IP. Go figure.

Wow. The "Crap Bag" writer used only three exclamation marks. I expected to see something like "SH*T!!!!!!!!!1".

Joey:
Uhm, yeah. Haven't I written about that 3 or 4 times before?
Yo, I wish you'd included the links to that seo company!!! I'd love to get into the top ten in over 890 search engines! Thanks for nothing!
HA
