The always readable Deborah Branscum may have the answer.
Spam exists because some people are stupid enough to reward these idots with their custom.
Deborah, had a post this week about the discovery of a list on the Internet of 6,000 people who responded to a spam for “Penis Enlargement”. Yep that’s right.
Seemingly 6,000 people gave over $300,000 or $17 per expected inch enlargement. The interesting thing is the calibre of the suckers. Read all about it at Medialife.
That spammer should follow up with the Nigerian scam offer, I’m sure at least half those 6,000 would believe that.
