*An e-mail arrives…*

> Hello ,

Hi there. Why the space before the comma?

> we would like to support your portal by placing a PR article of our  
> valuable client on your web.

How on earth does putting PR puff on my “portal” or “web” support me, exactly? Plus: capital letters are a good thing.

> We are interested in long term cooperation and we offer 6-12 months  
> advance payment as a sponsorship for your community.

Oh, I see. You want to pay me to run PR material. I wonder why?

> Best Regards,

Oh, I see. You’re buying links.

Go away, before you destroy your client’s search rankings. You’re certainly not getting to destroy mine.
