Not Terribly Clever

You're all probably familiar with the myriad names that a spoof or spam email will use to get their emails past your spam detector. "Thurnbockle Snogglesworth" has sent you an email entitled "BEST STOCKS ACT NOW," for example.

Which is why I had to laugh when I opened my spam folder to be sure an email wasn't accidentally diverted into it, and saw maybe the least clever cover name I'd ever seen attached to a spam email.

It said, simply: PARASITE.
