I get some truly bizarre spam. Here's one I found today as I was checking what had been caught in my filters:

Hello,
If you are a time traveler or alien and or in possession of government or alien technology I need your help! My entire life and health has been messed with by evil beings! If you have access to the carbon copy replica model #50 3000 series, the dimensional warp, temporal reversion or something similar please reply! I simply need the safest method of transferring my consciousness or returning to my younger self with my current mind/memory. I need an advanced time traveler to work with who can help me, I would prefer someone with access to teleportation as well as a variety different types of time travel. This is not a joke! I am serious! Please send a separate email to me at: Dragonball03@aol.com if you can help! Thanks

Wow, I mean, like, what if this message is genuine? I'm halfway tempted to respond, but then again, maybe it's a clever trap laid by government agents to draw time travelers and aliens out of hiding....
