I get at least five or six spam emails a day about cheap CaNaDiAn MedZ.

Really.

Which is kind of stupid marketing as you live in CaNaDA and could presumably just pop down the road for those cheap MedZ.

I frequently get emails from 419 scammers who claim to be officials in the South African government who need a foreign partner to transfer their ill-gotten gains overseas. These emails are sent to my .za (i.e., South African) email address. I also get spam from diploma mills advertising fake degrees, sent to my university staff email address.
