I got this strange spam email today.

That sounds similar to a name I remember as being associated with McCarty,
as one of his imagginary backers/partners/endorsers.
Was that name Jack Feng also?

Here is the spam email:

Yes, there was a "David C. L. Feng", an imaginary character who purportedly
represented the "Coralseas Studios" scam to the asian market.

However, my experience analyzing McCarty's sockpuppets suggests that this is
not his work. McCarty has only afew motives, all of which have to do,
directly or indirectly, with personal gain, or imaginary domination of
"usenet."

I suspect enthusiastic entrepreneurs are combing usenet discussion groups
with translators who are not complelely familar with the nuances of English.
They can tell you are interested in audio electronics, but they can't
distinguish the industrialist from the enthusiastic hobbyist.

Consider it a compliment. Arny would never get this offer :)
