Weird email

[delenda_est]

I opened my inbox this morning and saw an email with this subject line:
A Gift Has Been Purchased from Your Amazon Baby Registry

"That's strange," I thought, "I don't have a baby!"

All the same, it may be wise to change your amazon password.

[delenda_est]

That is very good advice, and I just did.

You are the second person on my flist who doesn't have a baby who has gotten this email today. Be careful, is probably a scam.

[delenda_est]

That is very creepy. I'm trying to figure out what the scam would be, though.

or maybe you're not telling us something...

[delenda_est]

Yes, it's true, you caught me. I'm secretly having a baby, and I secretly registered but didn't tell anyone. The REAL mystery is how anyone found my secret registry to buy me gifts!

[indypin]

diligent research on the amazon gift registry... funny thing is though, i did not recognize the last name of the father!

[delenda_est]

Ssssh! :)

Maybe they know something you don't.

You mean . . . they've set up cameras in my womb?!
