I received a spam e-mail regarding the forum.

Someone is trying to scam you into posting their adverts for them, if I were you I'd forward that email to my internet service providers spam prevention team.

I use Gmail.... what do I do then? My ISP i'm sure does not have a spam prevention team.

Also, how does it know that I peruse the forums?

The header suggests that this email is already in your spam folder, so google has taken care of it.

Bots browsing the web and collecting information... That's how they find out you use the forum. They're probably actively searching forums and matching that up with user handles/email addresses so they can better target their "audience"

I see you have your showing your twitter handle. There's a search vector...

Hello!

The site seeks to cooperate. http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/ found

What I'm trying to do is encourage your website to get better search results and page rank and traffic on Google.

However, this cooperation will not only include'm. But I have used in exchange, I'll give you the same thing for me. Thus, we must work together.

But how can you benefit or not. Three new members

I know that a small amount of data. But to be honest, it makes no sense to give detailed information about a person if the person is not interested.

So do not hesitate to contact me if you want to learn more about this, and I'll explain.

The 3 thing was in the first one too. THE SPAM IS ILLUMANITI!!!!!!

Right, I think I have enough information to make a informed decision.

So do not hesitate to contact me if you want to learn more about this, and I'll explain.

Oh, I won't hesitate to contact you, you would never try to rip me off.

Enjoy, and sorry for the necro. ;)
