I found this in the inbox of a Gmail account whose address I never gave out in any way, shape, or form.

Got the same thing from this guy. Not sure what he’s after, but I got the “please invite me to your orkut network” as well as the “I’m a webdesigner looking for work” email. Terrible. He needs to be shut down.

I got an email from fatuch@gmail.com, too. I posted the full headers and message at my link, together with my unprofessional analysis, if anyone wants to look them over.
this is weird. i got that same email asking me to invite this fatuch-guy to orkut. then i decided to google j e fatuch and found this site on top of it.
me thinks me won’t invite fatuch…
I just got the exact same email as C@rio requesting an Orkut invite. Thought I’d do a search on this guy which led me here. Glad this info is here so I know to just ignore him. Thanks
