Unusual Spam

I received this spam e-mail this morning and thought it was rather unusual.

Hello,

Browsing on the Internet I came upon your website ($name) and I find it very interesting and useful.
My name is Daniel Lee and the reason I am contacting you is my interest in purchasing advertising spot on your site.
I will be very thankful if you tell me how much a text link or banner 120×60 / 125×125 on your home page or all pages will cost.

Thank you in advance!

Daniel Lee

In the first place, the guy obviously needs to fix his script - LOL. $name indeed!

In the second place, why would someone spam you saying they want to buy advertising on your website?

Very odd indeed!

    I have gotten the same email off of one of my sites.  I think it is from someone with a directory because that is the only thing I did to promote that site.

    That's certainly possible because I do remember last year submitting this blog to about 300 directories.
