I'm going to apologize in advance if I'm mistaken, but I'm going to call it like I see it. I think the following is spam:

" . . . l want you to write back to me through my email address so that l will give you my picture . . . miss Rita"

Has anyone else received this?

If you do write back, "miss Rita" will send you a fake photo of a model and direct you to join a paid porn site.
