*spammer* treasure.

AOL is preparing to dig for buried gold and platinum on property in Massachusetts owned by the parents of a man it sued for sending millions of unwanted spam e-mails to its customers.
....
Greenbaum said the family believes [he] buried gold in the White Mountains 130 miles north of Boston.


ROAD TRIP!

"She said AOL's lawyer notified the family that the company intends to use bulldozers and geological teams to hunt for gold and platinum on their property."

I hope they call DigSafe first.

If the gold was buried using a shovel, why can't they use a metal detector instead of bulldozer to find it?

That's amazing. That's really amazing.

This is a real "goldmine" of an article.

Yesterday's Boston Globe has an interesting article about the spammer. Before he turned to spam, he was a rising star among the neo-Nazis.
