Surgical Spamming It Ain't
Dear Spammers,
Thank you for your recent messages, which provide excellent journal fodder. I'm trying to understand the rationale behind some of your latest tactics. This weekend, I received more than 125 messages promoting a product to enhance my sex life. Based solely on the subject lines, I'm pretty sure this is a device intended to improve sexual intercourse. As a singleton, I am singularly unlikely to buy such devices, but I appreciate the vote of confidence that I will need one soon. The really perplexing part is where you chose to send these 125 messages: spam@ and abuse@ my domain. I see that dozens more of these messages also went to other administratorish addresses at my domain like admin@. What made you think that it was a good idea to spam the very people who are in the best position to block all emails mentioning your product?
Just curious.
