This landed on my spam folder this morning. I actually had to double check, because this one is actually polished style-wise: header, theme, language, grammar. Two things stood out: the wrong mailto address (blurred to protect the innocent) and the funky from address. SpamAssassin: thanks!

Update: News.com reports on this: Bank Trojan botnet targets Facebook users

Is anyone else getting spammy invites at Ning as of late? Around mid-June, I started getting a relatively constant stream of invites from ramdon folks all over the map. There is little, if any, rhyme or reason to the invites, other than they mostly (and sometimes rather obviously) pr0n spam. The abuse folks asked me to leave the notifications intact, but after a while, the volume gets a little idiotic, so I started bulk-ignoring them.
