crediting spam

I received no fewer than 50 spam messages this afternoon with the same subject:

"Delete Bad Things on your Credit Cheap."

Somehow, I see the Bad Things as being kind of like monsters or dust bunnies, and being able to delete them is like zapping them with a ray gun. However, I don't want to use my credit to get rid of dust bunnies; a broom is much cheaper and easier.

Monsters, though: all bets are off if monsters show up.

I got a bunch more that said:

"Have-A Credit in a Month"

I don't know when Mario and Luigi got into the spam business, but it sounds like maybe times are getting tight at Nintendo? Perhaps they're being squeezed out in favor of the Miis on Wii?
