Casual spammers exploiting pastebin

This is annoyingly wrong: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=pNcfyRP9 dumps the contents of http://pastebin.com/pNcfyRP9 which says:

You have been successfully unsubscribed.

A spammer sending around a particular set of IndieGoGo recording glasses (no, no link love for this asshole) is using this to present a mock unsubscribe link at the bottom of the message. So, yeah, if you see the "these are cooler than Google glasses" spam, that's what this schmuck is doing.

Comment policy

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
