SO. I got to thinking the other day that combating the plethora (for those of you in Alabama, this means "a lot") of SPAM which comes to our junk folders through witty banter is not going to cut it. So I began to reply to them with short sentences:
I agree
Please, tell me more
Do I need a Passport for this?
Will you accept WIC in payment for the fee's?
Oh Please, I am so glad that you informed me of the account I do not have has been hacked.
In this, I have seen a rapid decrease in the incoming junk which comes to my e-mail. Then I became disheartened because it became fun to waste the time of the spammers and give them a shred of hope that a moron had actually answered them (well maybe one did LOL)
I have tried to give them advice on how our country actually works and that telling us that we have been given 3 M Euros is a dead give away but they wont seem to listen or cant read English, the definitely can not properly use it grammatically. Yet they wont lower the amount to a believable 5,000 USD which would generate more return email for them. No they want to continue to be ignorant and send the same old junk to us over and over.
This week (beginning 6-1-20) I began to collect the return e-mail addresses that actually go through to them. When I get one of these new phishing offers I simply put all of the collected e-mail. This is just a little of the entertainment I make for myself because I believe I can send up to 50 people in each e-mail, and then I just send them multiple times.
I am thinking I may also begin to save the e-mail list here so others can join in if they choose. Plus it gives me a place to compile the list.
