I just got this one -
Discover the power of the Blog Blaster!
Brandnew software revolutionizes the power of online advertising -never seen before!- BRAND NEW FOR MARCH 2007!
How would you like 2 Million Sites linking to your ad ?
Weblog or blog population is exploding around the world, resembling the growth of e-mail users in the 1990s.
Post your ads where people read them!
- What if you could place your ad on all these sites ?
Right, that would mean you would have millions of sites linking to your ad - and my idea actually works.
I have developed a software that automatically places your ad on millions of blogs.
You will receive thousands of targeted hits to your website as Blog Blaster places your ad on blogs that match your ad's category.
This method has never been released to the public before.
Very few, if anyone has implemented this
For full details please read the attached .html file
Almost makes it sound legit doesn't it, instead of being the electronic version of flyposting on peoples windows?

Couldn't we have it all...?
"Almost makes it sound legit doesn't it, instead of being the electronic version of flyposting on peoples windows?"
I don't know what 'flyposting' means (sorry english is not my native tongue),
but it sounds like organized automated blogspam to me.
Is this a new trend emerging..?
Didn't the mail refer to a website, or email, or how are you supposed to contact them..?
Are the two mails from two different spam groups, or is it a lone madman, or..? |

Flyposting is when people put up advertising posters on someone elses property (empty shops, buildings, fences etc)
There was an attached html file which I did not want to open.
I agree that it is someone trying to sell software to mass post adverts (spam) to blogs. |

Why not open it in Notepad - wouldn't that be safe enough? |

I looked up the html page as you are so interested -
<html>
<head>
<title>Loading page...</title>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2;URL=http://www.promote-biz.net/best/blogblaster/">
<script>
url='http://www.promote-biz.net/best/blogblaster/';
if(document.images) { top.location.replace(url); }
else { top.location.href=http://www.promote-biz.net/best/blogblaster/; }
</script>
</head>
<body>Loading
<a href=http://www.promote-biz.net/best/blogblaster/>page</a>...
</body>
</html>
It actually has some interesting and worrying statements in it such as -
Advertising using Blog Blaster is 100% SPAM FREE advertising! You will never be accused of spamming. Your ads are submitted to blogs whose owners have agreed to receive your ads. Really!
AdBlaster Software, 1 Click ads to over 2,500,000 Sites! Oh no!
Newsgroup Blaster, blast free ads to dozens of Newgroups! Just what the world needs, more e-junk
