I will pay you $100

I am so sick of getting emails that say I can claim millions if I just do this or pay that. So I have started responding to each one I get with the same message:

I will pay you $100 if you will stop sending me these emails.

Thanks!


Then I send it using a non-functional email address after making sure my email address is not contained in the email or any links.

My hope is that the spammers get excited about this new revenue stream and waste time trying to contact me.

You may think the spammers fools who are only wasting time, but last week I saw an email sent to a lawyer's site where the person was reporting that they actually fell for this and sent off $495 so they could collect their millions due to them. While they may or not also be an idiot, NO ONE deserves to be ripped off.
