Here's what I do Bob.

I save the Spam senders email address, and then I use it to reply to whatever sort of porn purveyor happens to end up in my mail box next. Substitute your real email address with the folks who sent you the "Regrow Your Hair Instantly" email.

With any luck, you'll get the bastards spamming themselves. At any rate, it's a pretty cheap chuckle.

I have also sent a few of these folks the most up to date version of Back Orifice as well as a couple of other nasty viruses I've managed to capture.

One finds fun where one can these days.....

Regards,

I like it. However, if they know how to get into email files the way I do, they can get your real email address. It's listed where you can't see it in the sequential files.

Please don't do that, for two reasons. 99.8 percent of the email addresses in the "From" line in spam do not belong to the spammer. Spammers routinely use bogus addresses in the "From" line or even forge the email addresses of innocent bystanders there to misdirect complaints. It is trivially easy to forge the "From" line of an email header.

Also, every time you reply to a spam, the spammer knows your email address is a live one, and they will sell it to other spammers.

Want to reduce your spam load? NEVER reply to a spam and always trace the point of origin of the spam and the URL (if any) they are advertising, then complain to the abuse coordinator or postmaster at those domains. Spamcop.net provides a great free service that does just that.
