Junk Mail
Ooooh...I really detest how my particulars get sold to mailing lists.
I picked up this highly time sensitive correspondence from this rag mag that just will not die. Wah, the envelope says adult signature requested, and registered tracking number XXXX some more, then it gets dropped by regular snail mail. Duh??
The letter goes:
Dear Ms (my name),
Please don't discuss this letter with anyone.
In your hands are exclusive documents that not everyone, including neighbours of yours in (my address) is eligible to receive. You, Ms (my name) are the one and only person in all of Singapore who can use your 6 non-transferable Prize Draw Numbers imprinted on the enclosed form for your chance to win an instant cash transfer in the amount of S$200,00.
ya da ya da ya da. Two full pages later,
If we don't hear from you by the stipulated closing date, any chance of transferring funds to your bank account will be lost.
This has been a private correspondence.
Sincerely,
(rubber stamp signature of person named below)
Florence Wu
Director, Sweepstakes Committee
I have made their private correspondence public with you. I guess I will never be one of the prize winners now. Might as well toss it into the trash bin along with all the other junk mail. Oh dang!
