Re: Re: Identifying SPAM

by GG

1) Why is it called Spam - anything to do with Monty Python?

2) Why do spammers (or should we call them w**kers) do it - is it to make money, and if so, how?

3) What sort of 'people' are they? Assume MEN and with small what-nots.

4) Is there nothing that can be done about the overtly offensive i.e going on about 9 inch doo-dahs or about child porn i.e is there nowhere one can forward these to?

5) I am sure the Moderators do a sterling job - but what a waste of time for them. Is there nothing one could do to waste the spammers time?

6) I just don't open up any URL links now in fear of bugs - suppose that is all we can do on a personal level?
