If you have ever wondered what would happen if you were to actually respond to the myriad number of spam messages you probably receive, then check out the article “Diary of a deliberately spammed housewife” on Network World.
The article’s premise is a an interesting one: what happens if you actually respond to every spam message you receive? The results are nothing shocking as the “test subject” finds that everything is complete ‘snake oil’ (i.e. false promises). On top of that, not only did replying to spam lead to more email, but also a flood of more standard mail was delivered to her doorstep.
Again, the findings of this article are nothing surprising, but it is a very good (and quick) read well worth your time.
