Stupidity at its best

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

About 10 years ago, I was looking into different ways to promote my website. I used a product called wolf surfer to help me improve my ranking in various websites. Afterwards, I stopped using the program, as it didn’t help much at all. Today, I received an email out of the blue:

==============================================================
THIS IS NOT UNSOLICITED EMAIL! You are receiving this email because you or someone using your email address created an account at WolfSurfer Traffic Exchange. Please see the bottom of this email for removal instructions.

Dear Lewis,

You probably forget about your credits in your wolfsurfer account.
It’s a waste of traffic to leave them. So you login and surf again to get your account active and your credits flowing again.

And we do miss you !!

Hope to see you surfing soon !!

Ok, so I had a hard time understanding why they sent me the email. They said it was because I had credits in my account. But then they go and say that I have zero credits. What is up? And they have the nerve to suggest that I forgot about them and was wasting them. In turn, I sent them a nice email back their way.

Have you gone mental? 0 == none, zip, zero, nada, nothing, nil, null, naught, nix, void, ziltch – thus meaning NO CREDITS. Please retain a certificate from grade school before you send me your next email claiming that I have credits when at the same time you obviously prove that I do not.
