When I read the headline " Spam from the North Pole" I was going to say " wasn't Spam the national lunch meat of Canada?
People Be Careful! I received an E-mail from one of those Alaskan profiles, turns out it was really from Amsterdam, and it was a money order scam!
the scam is based on the Russian Mail order bride scam, they sent me pictures of this beautiful swimsuit model, with a heartbreaking story, then she wanted me to pay for half her trip $950.00.
if you receive one of these letters, open up the properties on the sent e-mail and look for the "received from IP address" ( exe: 81.29.225.13 ) then open up this website: http://ws.arin.net/whois/?queryinput=81.29.225.13
and inside the box type in the ip address and it will tell you where that e-mail came from, it's easy to do, just takes time to cut and paste the series of numbers to do the search.

I was only two, my dad was in the AF, and I don't remember too much, but friends of mine went on a cruise and that was one of their stops along the way.
