Ways Of Deceiving
Spam Filters
by: William R. Nabaza of http://www.Nabaza.com
Spam
filters or spam blockers or spam eliminators have one purpose and
that is to block, ban, delete unwanted, unsolicited commercial email
and prevent them from entering your inbox. Their intentions are
good since email is intended for personal communication but often
abused by internet marketers and opt-in newsletters. However, spam
filters are misunderstood little tool for they are merely software
that aids and not to demand from it's owner or never to dictate
it's owner what is spam or not. Our fault is laziness in way that
we have all delegated the task of choosing what and what not to
read in our inbox to a software.
Spam
filters work in various ways but one common principle is that they
isolate spam from not by means of patterns or words or keywords
found on your email messages. They do this very fast often lightning
speed and we can say that they've already "read" our email
messages first before we have ever read it. Some will go into extent
that it actually scans the email message and reads it for some spam
are mascarading as a personal email but are not. They're real intention
is ot sell you out.
So
this little so-called "intelligent software" will do their
"thing" and put messages straight to your spam box/folder
or even worst delete it before you can even set your eyes on it.
One colleague of mine decided not to receive email from me because
my email end up on the spam folder. How cruel? A friendship destroyed
just because people prevented their brain to think and sided with
the spam filter. Spam filters can't give you freebies because it
hates the word.
A person
or programmer feeds it's words like: free, money, cash, opportunity,
friend, $, investment, and many more to be filtered or scored out.
A certain score was assigned to a word mentioned above and the more
the word are mentioned in an email message the more your email message
is considered as a spam. So the highest scorer get straight to the
trash.
No
person or software can tell me what is spam or not for I have not
prevented by the use of my brain. Remember the saying "Another
man's trash is another man's treasure.", so it is with spam.
"Another man's spam is another man's opportunity.
So
how can you deceive this spam filters and get your message across
to your intended recipient.
1.
Limit or if possible don't use the words: "free, money, cash,
opportunity, for a more listing of these scored out words, try sending
a message to yourself using either yahoo or hotmail account once
it get straight to the trash, chances are you have the banned word.
2.
Speak in a foreign language, perhaps, your own native language will
do. Majority of spam filters are programmed in English but watch
out there are already multi-lingual spam filters out there.
3.
Work on your wordings, make it short. Send a test email to your
yahoo or hotmail account, if it gets to the inbox, then you can
send that email, if not try rewording your message. try my spam
tester here: http://www.nabaza.com/safelist.htm or here http://www.nabaza.com/autoresponders.htm
4.
Insert symbol or extra letter in the filtered word, for example
instead of saying "free" say it like: "freee",
"f.r.e.e.", "F*r*e*e*". I think you get the
point. Your message will appear coded bringing us back to the military
age of the internet where only the militaries can use the internet.
5.
Don't send an email at all, that way it won't be filtered. Try fax
machines. Use forum, blogs, rss, i.m. (instant messenger) or desktop
alerts.
6.
Use randomly generated words so you're recipient will think you're
crazy and so he/she will move your message to his/her trash.
7.
Use a website and post your message there. Email the recipient just
the url or web address and let him/her click on it, chances are
he/she won't click thinking that the web address is a virus or a
trojan.
8.
Abbreviate your words like those sent on SMS (short messaging system)
or in telegrams or just like in morse codes.
9.
Turn your messages into a graphic either a .jpg or .gif will do.
Write in a piece of paper and scan it or use a graphic editing software
and write your entire message there and save it as .jpg or .gif
and send it in an email as file attachments.
Ok,
I'll stop there before I become a laughing stock. Now for a very
effective way of communication, use desktop alerts, what are desktop
alerts? Know them and download 1 or two of them here: http://www.Nabaza.biz
