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

Hello quotas,I’d like to offer you my services of Webdesigner and Webmaster to build, redesign or update your website with the following options:
- Chat or Live Help - PRICE $1000
P.S.: If you don’t already have a Gmail account, you can get a Gmail invite here.

This J.E Fatuch guy created at least two communities in orkut, both deleted: “Orkut chat” and “Orkut verified member”. His profile doesn’t exist anymore. He is a known spammer and probably a scammer too: he asked for a photocopy of member’s passport to become an “Orkut verified member”. The chat he created had an “orkut look”, with several elements (logos, design) copied from orkut pages.
People are actually paying for gmail accounts????????????
Thousands of free invites @ http://isnoop.net/gmail/ or http://gmail.afraid.org/
