Strangely Perfect

Pacific Webworks / Quad Try and Dodge the Issue Back in 2009 I stumbled upon a negative option scam for which those involved were sued by Google (and folded with an out-of-court settlement) and were prosecuted by Uncle Sam, losing again.  Initially, I was completely unaware of the depths of deception to which these people [...]

Massive Spam Hit Willie R Over the weekend, I received over 600 spams from someone called Willie R (with a number appended to the name) to my gmail account which I now use for my spam-trapping on an old email address that I use for registrations and the like…  See the screenshot of one page [...]

Monavie, Gillmap, Idaho Falls, Google Treasure Chest and Oprah Winfrey Introduction Last June, a contributor to this website @Not Kevin made a telling entry here (http://strangelyperfect.tv/4308/google-revolution-different-name-same-scam/#comment-1589) that has direct prescient relevance to the court case in the USA that Oprah Winfrey has heaped onto a host of companies and individuals for using her name to [...]

Introduction Poacher turned Gamekeeper I’ve been rss following a little thread where a job-seeking homeworker has been diddled out of thousands – see Saundrak’s Blog. It seems to have close ties to Pacific Webworks et al, maybe not directly, but the Golf Course, techniques,  or something. Read this curious comment from someone called mlwood79 that [...]

Introduction So it’s time to move… It’s time to get down with it… It’s time to testify.. …and I want to know… ARE YOU READY TO TESTIFY? Brothers and sisters… I give you.. A testimonial… The MC5! With a vague resemblance to my personal life and status, and a bit like “technology mirroring life”, this [...]

Introduction While fishing around for some chords I came across azchords.com – as you do.  They’ve a shedload of Google ads and I accidentally hit the banner ad while trying to get rid of pesky popups (why do sites still do this now?)  I was taken to the website of someone called Kevin Hoeffer and [...]

The problem, in fact, is older than Turkey, older than the 20th century creations of Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia etc.  The problem is the continual denial of the Kurds, and ancient people with their own language.  They’ve survived in the same area despite the incursions and massacres of Alexander the Great, The Mongols, The Murghals, [...]

Following on from my earlier experiment with “The Complainerator“, I got a very similar message from myself to myself  again…  It’s the address I used to dig into XIN NET, whose automated systems now seem to think I really, really need some drugs from a Canadian (United Kingdom for me) Pharmacy. This is the email [...]

Now I may like to think I’m a literary genius but I am realistic enough to realise I’m not! So what happened was that I got lots of notional referrals sequentially on one post, all trying to comment at the same time! Then after a few minutes the same would happen to another posting – [...]

I decided to have a small investigation on (some!) of today’s spam…  I noticed a lot of similarities in my Mailwasher Pro output: Forged/spoofed “from” address “Debt free” or “get out of debt” or some permutation thereof in the subject field ALL have a non-obfuscated ~spaces.live.com web address as the link 2 line body: e.g. [...]

Rob a Bank! This is inspired by a recent glut of like-titled spam that I’ve received… Bonnie & Clyde John Dillinger

Some people have no shame! Bush chides Beijing over rights Bush, totally devoid of any self sense of irony is telling China how to do human rights. Just yesterday, Texas executed a murderer.  Jose Medellin didn’t deny the charge.  The point is that Texas, Bush’s home state, reckons it’s above the International Court of Justice [...]

I’ve just seen a news article today about a man who’s been locked in a jail for about 30 years and no-one knew where he was! He belongs to the world’s largest democracy, India, and has been jailed in Pakistan since 1973! This is the same Pakistan that George Bush has decided is a friend [...]

I’m just reminded about what this all means so I’d better describe a little known part of Crawling Chaos history that might explain the weird recordings floating about… Crawling Chaos had a bit of a fan club, that is, they received mail (this was pre-internet etc) from all sorts of oddballs across the globe. Some [...]
