Great Spam Subject Headers Posted in Online Advertising, Concocted by Mike Perk, 1 comment
Published on 4 July 2008

I know we all hate spam but sometimes you have to admire the creativity and thought that goes into some of the subject titles. I must admit, I’ve never been inclined to click on “get your viagra today” or “grow your schloong to extra lengths”, but today I had one sent through that I just had to click on:

“Grow a kangeroo in 2 weeks”

Brilliant! And for a moment I even let my mind wander into the realms of thinking about having a baby kangeroo hopping around my flat and the two of us staying in with Pizza and watching Rocky IV on Friday evening.

Imagine my disappointment when I clicked through and all I got was a link to some medication that would “upsize my organ”. At least the viagra spam is selling what it says it’s going to sell.

Anyways, I thought I would open it up to all the heavy chefs out there to check through their spam with a creative eye this week and see what other classic subject lines are out there.
