This is the granddaddy of spam schemes. It's the original, the one that started it all. It's like, "Hey, I've got this amazing product that will change your life, but only if you buy it from me!" And then, just to make it sound even more convincing, you throw in some free stuff, like a "free" gift card or a "limited time" discount. But let's be real, you're still just sending your grandma a bunch of unsolicited emails.
This one's a real crowd-pleaser. It's like, "Hey, I'm a real person, I've got feelings and emotions just like you!" And then, just to make you feel bad for being skeptical, you start talking about how hard it is to make a living as a spammer. It's like, "I'm just a regular person trying to make a buck, why won't you just give me a chance?" But really, you're just a script-reading automaton with a bad haircut.
