Labour & Greens email mass spam

[E. Scrooge]

Anyone get these or see them?

I've seen 4 of them turn up on a friend's computer. A couple were replies
from some idiot who didn't realise he was replying to everyone on the long
list.
One direct email was from a Susan Somerfield.

Another email was from a -
Luke Stopford
Business manager.
lukest...@telecom.co.nz

The last part of his email said:
"A vote for National is like carnal knowledge with your sister".

Owner of computer rang David Benson-Pope, who then gave his email address
asking for the emails to be sent to him. Messages and full headers were
sent to him - came to 68 KB.

About 1 1\2 hours later 2 replies arrived back from Benson-Pope, both 69 KB
in size. First email simply said, "Looks like you got yourself on someone's
chat list".

Second reply from the helpful little bugger simply said:
"VOTE LABOUR
2 TICKS FOR LABOUR"

Not even a decent sign off, plus the fool could've cut the spam messages and
just left the short message from the computer owner about them.

Needless to say the 2 Labour party voters in the household are completely
pissed off. They didn't expect Benson-Pope to do much, but were expecting a
better reply than that crap from from him.

Now these Labour / Greens mass email spam was sent to people on most NZ
ISPs - ihug, Orcon, Xtra, Free Net, Clear, and Paradise etc.

I've got xtra and didn't get the spam, but xtra's spam program probably
deleted it before it got to me.
