Tired Of Spam

[coffeecoven]

Spam can be fun! I got tired of hitting my delete button, so I started
hitting my reply button with the following----------
"HOPE YOU LIKE JUNK MAIL AS MUCH AS WE ENJOY RETURNING IT TO
SENDER" it's free and fun to do. I've been getting declining amounts
fo spam form day to day. I guess these companies and workers are
getting tired of hitting thier own delete buttons, so they finaly remove
my name from thier mailing list. I'ts free and fun for me, but costly and
aggravating to them--especially if more people started doing it.

**** em if they can't take a joke!

LOL...


I do this with the Credit card offers in the snail mail...


They have those postage paid envelops... So I fill 'em right up with junk mail and send 'em out..

HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHA


Oh and make sure to mix it up.. So the competitors get each others offers.. That and sometimes chewing gum, rocks, whatever makes the postage more $$$$$$

That's really not a bad idea. My only worry with that is they would send back a virus or something.

You're hitting the wrong people if you reply.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-mail_spam
Increasingly, spammers use networks of virus-infected PCs (zombies) to send their spam. Zombie networks are also known as Botnets. In June 2006, an estimated 80% of e-mail spam were sent by zombie PCs, an increase of 30% from the prior year. An estimated 55 billion e-mail spam were sent each day in June 2006, an increase of 25 billion per day from June 2005.

Spoofing can have serious consequences for legitimate e-mail users. Not only can their e-mail inboxes get clogged up with "undeliverable" e-mails in addition to volumes of spam, they can mistakenly be identified as a spammer. Not only may they receive irate e-mail from spam victims, but (if spam victims report the e-mail address owner to the ISP, for example) their ISP may terminate their service for spamming.

I TO HAD CONCERN ABOUT COOKIES WITH A VIRUS,---- BUT
ONLY BY HITTING THIER "CLICK HERE TO REMOVE ME OF YOUR LIST"
BULL DUNG. SO I JUST HIT REPLY, AND SERVE THEM EXTRA HELPINGS
OF THIER OWN SPAM UNTIL THEY BUST! I have an updated virus
protection and haven't had any problems so far. If any one out there
has more info about this concern, please advise. I'm still a boot when
it comes to computers and don't want to be passing out any bad scoop!
Thanks.

If you are typing up a reply picturing that you are responding to a real live person you are sadly mistaken. Some computer somewhere is clicking away and when your response as return e-mail is received it just goes into the waste basket. Some one some where looks at a list of angry replys and says ha ha we got 20 more this morning.

Have fun with this one.

Most of my Spam come labelled From: "Dave", or some other common name. But if you click on "Dave" you will usually see a crazy looking email address like drgi4 @ fgjax . com, that's a sure sign of those Zombie Bots just cranking out junk mail.

America donated something like 300,000 tons of Spam to Russia during WW II. They later admitted their people probably would have starved without all that Spam.

BTW- Spam stands for "Some Parts Are Meat":D
