Chinese spammer person
Dear CEO,

(If you are not the person who is in charge of this, please forward this to your CEO, because this is urgent, Thanks)

We are a Network Service Company which is the domain name registration center in China.
We received an application from Huabao Ltd on June 20, 2016. They want to register " oregon-trail-5 " as their Internet Keyword and " oregon-trail-5 .cn "?" oregon-trail-5 .com.cn " ?" oregon-trail-5 .net.cn "?" oregon-trail-5 .org.cn " ?" oregon-trail-5 .asia " domain names, they are in China and Asia domain names. But after checking it, we find " oregon-trail-5 " conflicts with your company. In order to deal with this matter better, so we send you email and confirm whether this company is your distributor or business partner in China or not?

Best Regards,
<somebody>


As you may know, I used to be one of the most active guide writers over on GameFAQs. Even though I no longer write guides with great frequency, I still receive e-mail about them from time to time. I obviously didn't respond to this spam e-mail, but I did find it amusing that a spambot would customize its messages to mention a game I've actually covered in one of my FAQs.
Course clear! You got a card.

That's actually funny.
They can't seem to tell the difference between someone's fan-made strategy guide, and a company.

Technology, 1 step forward, and about 8-thousand back.
