Lately we've been getting a lot of spam that makes no sense. It will have a message like the one I got today which seems to be a few lines from a story:
"Then, just before the car got to the edge, the door banged open and out he flew onto the road! Eyes wild and blank, he lashed out at Geoffrey, striking his old friend high on the cheekbone. Then, reading the clipping again, he noticed something suggestive: Angela Ford from John Ford. Part of him understood exactly what this assessment meant: he had given up the idea of escape."
The message went on with just repetitions of the first line.
I noticed the email was addressed to two or three others with similar email addresses to ours. Often the message will seem to be a quote from a story but sometimes it's just gibberish. There is never a phony email link to click or a solicitation of some sort or something to sell.
Why would someone bother to send this stuff?
