Introduction

A classic form of spam in the early days of the internet are known as chain letters. A chain letter involves a story and command to send the letter to a number of contacts. Here is a sample:

Once you start reading this, do not stop. Every five minutes, a baby duckling gets seperated from it’s family. If you forward this letter to ten people, then a duckling will stay with it’s family.
