Subject: Link Exchange proposal between your site mahalo.com and my site
To: Mahalo <privacy@mahalo.com>
Hi
My name is Lily Holmes. I've just visited your website mahalo.com and
I was wondering if you'd be interested in exchanging links with my
website. I can offer you a HOME PAGE link back from my Gambling and
Betting website which is http://www.reckner.info/
As mentioned, your link would be placed on the site home page, not on
any "links" pages which may be buried in the site somewhere. I'm sure
this exchange would be benefitial for both of our sites, helping
towards increasing our visibility in search engines.
If you are interested, please add the following information to your
website and kindly let me know when it's ready. I'll do the same for
you in less than 24 hours, otherwise you can delete my link from your
site.
Title: Online Betting
URL: http://www.freebettingonline.co.uk/
Description: All the bookmakers and their free bets in one place.
I hope you have a nice day and thank you for your time.
Best regards;
Lily Holmes

So why are you publishing these bits of spam on your homepage? It appears as if you are indirectly taking part in the link exchange scheme. Kinda shady.

Emailing Me Internet Marketing Spam…
//
I’m accustomed to receiving email spam, but internet marketing pitches are a new breed because they arrive in my inbox, not my spam folder.
The good ones are personable and hard to tell…

I have to agree with Charles… not about the shady part, but
although you are trying to shame the spammer by posting the
email, you have effectively given them what they wanted by
posting the link to their site. They don’t really care
what context you put it in… you just gave them credit for
that link.
