Today I have recieved the first SPAM Mail in my Gmail account...(I got gmail in very early days of it's birth).
Let me tell you the definition for SPAM before I show you the actual message...
01. Unsolicited "junk" e-mail sent to large numbers of people to promote products or services. Sexually explicit unsolicited e-mail is called "porn spam." Also refers to inappropriate promotional or commercial postings to discussion groups or bulletin boards.
02. An inappropriate attempt to use a mailing list, or USENET or other networked communications facility as if it was a broadcast medium by sending the same message to a large number of people who didn't ask for it. Mass junk E-mail.
03. unwanted e-mail (usually of a commercial nature sent out in bulk)
Now the mail I have got goes here...
