Hello Everyone

I received this strange email today.   I didn't open the attached file, but it also came with this strange message, which I searched and located on a site called Nabble.

http://www.nabble.com/protocoling-td14394329s3741.html


Subject: Protocoling

Across his cheek, a scratch on his nose, and sticking crematorium
bringing with them the dead bodies made this offer. 'let
the food be brought' were of the lapis lazuli accompanied
by all kinds of their lords, they at last attain to region
where older than either theo or margaret, she was neither
keep his faith given when the observance thereof from disease.
then again the illustrious vishnu the illustrious garuda
then assumed ninety times choppin' block an' up the road
about a halfmile. 

Does anyone know what this is all about? Thanks in advance.

Spammers often include some random bits of text in an attempt to bypass spam filters. It makes the email look more legit than an empty mail with an attached file.
The message you found on Nabble also appear to be spam.
