Hi [name]
First, may I congratulate you on entering a new era in your life, the era of the Good Luck Email, I ask you kindly not to forward this onto other people, as should everyone receive a copy, then all the good luck in the world will be redirected from the various organisms, such as elephants and strawberries into humanity. This is OK on an occasional basis, if a few strawberries get bad luck then it is no big deal, but the last time one of these emails got forwarded around the globe to too many people, Pandas stopped mating on a large scale, and as such, now there are hardly any left. It is a shame that Pandas can’t receive emails like this themselves, but they’re bound by the terms and conditions of the ISPs of the world to be human before they can sign up.
I can’t determine who’s good luck you will be receiving, hopefully it’ll be from something that you or I don’t like, or care about, such as a the 2034th rock down, third from the left, in the Amazon. But don’t you worry, with my positive thought and well wishing, it won’t be anything serious like Paris Hilton’s Chihuahua or Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second’s corgis.
Anyway, with this in mind, upon receiving full positive feedback on eBay (or it won’t work as well; however, with 100% feed back, it’ll double in strength), I shall send on the Good Luck Email to you. Of course, you’re free not to leave good feed back, that is your purgative to undo a lot of the good work the Good Luck Email, but it would give me great pleasure to give you the best Good Luck possible.
Thank you very much and Kind Regards
Pauly Pops
----- If this works, I'm going to get into the eBay API and set up a script to do this automaticly, it cost me $0.20 to set it up, so that's $0.79 profit. If I could script this a few thousand times a week, well, blimey.

"Purgative" means "strongly laxative"...
