Topic: How late is too late to respond to an email?

Anonymous A started this discussion 8 years ago #74,116

I have an email that's 14 months old that I've been meaning to reply to. Is it too late? I could say I've been busy?

Say that you have been in hospital almost dying.

Reply and act as if nothing happened and you just read their mail for the first time. If they complain blame your email provider or whatever.

Drink some bleach, and post pictures of the aftermath.

I replied to 3 year old spam. The scammer continued to try and scam me.

Fuck you, bitch. Whoever sent it has likely moved on and couldn't give a shit less if you replied.

You're welcome! I've used variations of this excuse for many things, the most important thing is to own it. Its more of a confidence trick I guess. And pretty easy to do by email.
