Do the spammers really think this stuff works?? Anyone with 1/2 a brain
ignores the spam. Those with less than 1/2 a brain certainly have no money
that they can extract. Seems like a total waste of time and effort.

It's usually a wave from what I've seen. We get a lot of it, then it goes
away for a while... a few months later, it comes back again.

I agree with Larry... does anyone really fall for this stuff?

I'm sure you've all heard the saying:

"There's a sucker born every minute" ?

As hard as it is to believe, many ppl do fall victim to this obvious BS;

What spam??

one half of one percent actually respond to it. If the spammer sends out 1 million spams , he will get about 5000 responses.
Even if he only makes $1 per response, he just made $5000. No wonder spam is so rampant.
