Evangelia and Leora

Sam: Weird spam: "I was at a party, got drunk, couldn't drive the car, somebody gave me a lift on my car, and crossed on the red light many times, I've just got the pictures, maybe you know him? Here is the photo. I need to find him urgently! Thank you, Evangelia."
Sam: No photos were attached.
Sam: I'm not sure what the goal of that spam is.
Sentynel: Maybe it's targeting clairvoyants.
Sentynel: Alternatively, maybe there were images and a virus scanner somewhere removed them.
Sentynel: Or, maybe it's fishing for live email addresses by trying to induce responses from misguidedly helpful people.
Sam: Here's another identical spam, except that this one is from "Leora."
Sam: Maybe.
Sam: Except that the return email addresses are evangelia@rinkworks.com and leora@rinkworks.com.
Sam: So those aren't going to get back to anybody.
ThePhan: Evangelia and Leora have been secretly working on RinkWorks for years.
Sam: If so, I need to crack the whip. There has not been nearly enough new content lately.
