    "Protect your entire workforce from one unified IT console"

    I'm just wondering what you think when you read that?

    My initial thought is: "Shit! A unified IT console is coming to get me and my workforce!"

    But it actually means that, from your position at a unified IT console, you can protect your entire workforce.

    The quote is from a spam email I just got from zdnet.

    Do you have any other badly worded spam emails to share for fun?

    We're going to match all pre-orders with the equivalent amount of Shadow Crystals in the digital game. That's right, you'll get the Shadow Crystals immediately, and then essentially the physical cards are free!

    I don't get spam emails but my brother gets so many a day we've made a joke out of it by finding the most hilarious ones.

    Here's a classic;

    Contrast this with Australia... sometimes I forget to close the front gate and it takes me 2 weeks to walk back out to close it...

    From god knows who: I have just found out that the prince of Nairobi want to send me money! Yeah I'm rich!

    From Match dot com: there is a very pretty girl from my area who wants to meet me!

    General spam email: just click on this link to claim my free trip to Aruba,

    My all time favourite! Your Genitalia is just to big! Click on link to find out how to keep your lovers happy!
    Couldn't resist "click" and of course it's a sales pitch for the exact opposite problem!
