Tis' the Season To Be Spammed!
Filed in archive Spam News on November 24, 2007
Symantec is predicting that this holiday season will bring a flood of new spam hawking everything from cheap watches to penny stocks. With gas prices rising higher and higher, more people are turning to online shopping. More folks looking for deals online equals more chances for spammers and scammers. The IT departments of the major online retailers claim they are on top of their game and online shopping is safer than ever, but it still pays to be cautious when buying online.
Now that the holiday season is upon us, enjoy Symantec's version of the "12 Days of Christmas":

Really sometimes this spamms should be allowed, at least during the holidays when you have to look for lots of presents and you can’t afford to pay too much on everyone… and a new Rolex would never upset me! :D
