I just got one of these hilarious spammails about a diet pill called Power Diet Plus. What cracked me up the most is that the mail ended with saying - and I quote:
Just try it for one month - there's nothing to lose, and everything to gain.
Isn't a diet pill supposed to make me
lose weight in stead of gaining?

I think the only thing to gain from diet pills are all the side effects...such as violent diarrhea for example.

Oh no it won't be so effective. When the body doesn't retain nutrients, it responds by storing fat to ensure that the person survives long enough for when better conditions ensue. So not only will a person be filling up the toilet every night, but they won't lose fat any faster than a person who sits on the couch ever night eating pork rinds while watching tv.
Trust me there is no lazy way to lose fat. Even a sumo wrestler will die of starvation before he becomes slim ever he stop eating. Proper exercise and a varied diet are the only way to go. Or have a metabolism like mine. I can't get fat no matter how much I eat.

Why would you say that? The company is an obvious predator to unwary consumers. They state the product, advertise its side-effects and that grabs any sucker on the line. Capitalist commercializing has destroyed people's lives and security through grossly unhealthy products, made tons of money on it and is planning on making more money on it by selling a cure which is even worse.

It's like that diet pill Homer tries in the Simpsons, it makes him go blind.
"There's food here? AAAA! I'm Blind!"

Yeah social aspects like these can be easily summed up in simpson episodes that mock them, huh?

Spam of the worst kind:
5Hi there, how's it going? Well for starters I must confess that this is indeed pretty awkward. I noticed your profile online and figured I'd drop ya a line....I bet that doesn't happen to you everyday! I never really even thought about it until someone saw mine and got in touch a little while back. ANYWAY! My name is Karan, I'm 23, and I'm a sale rep for a mid-sized pharmaceutical company. Goodness I can't get over how strange this is! I'm sure you're probably thinking the same thing! hehe.
Oh well, I really don't want to go on too far. Especially since I'm not sure whether or not you have any6 interest. But if you would like to get to know more about me, please drop me a line. I'll be more than happy to include some pics as well.
Anything about you would be greatly appreciated as well

Well I hope to hear from you soon! Take care.
xoxo,
Karan ..........
P.S. Do you use any messenger services, maybe we can chat on there sometime? My email address is
[email protected]
Best regards,
Of course this is sent to multiple adresses ::)
