spam

Has any ABer ever been tempted to click on the tiresome spam that plagues AB? And even worse, bought something from them.

The spammer must get some reaction otherwise they wouldn't bother.... or would they?

I couldn't' figure out why there is still so much spam and scams around, thinking that surely everyone must by now have become a bit wary that they could't win a raffle that they didn't enter or how they would have been specially selected to help dispose of some unknown demised multi-millionaires fortune!

It's a numbers game and technology makes it possible. You can send out a million spam\scam mails for nothing and you only need a few responses to make it worth doing. There's easily a few fools in every million recipients.
