You are not the target market for buying something from them. Spam has essentially two main purposes; (1) to get you to buy something, (2) as a way to infect your pc with malware. In the first case it's a numbers game. For each X million spam mails Y% will follow the sales pitch. In the second case simply opening or viewing a spam email on un-patched pc can be enough to infect you.


>I figured something like that but it's like admitting they're not legit, not trustworthy, as thy've obviously used subterfuge just to get to you. Thus I would never do ANY business with any business using such foot-in-the-door tactics. It's like a door-to-door salesman pitching to you but showing a brochure with nothing but non-sensical drivel on it.

>Finding "PenYs Enl@rgement" in a title, for another example, just shows similar subtefuge, like admitting to a businessman that they've tricked his secretary in order to get to see him.
>Essentially, what I'm saying is that such techniques can only serve to put off the potential buyer (not that I'm in the market for such products, you understand).

>>>Why DO those spams contain such garbage text, almost like a story narrative but nonsensical, like" We walked in the garden of brilliance while scorpions and such fish always take highway notices in good companions..." ?
>>>
>>>It's like telling you, the moment you open the message, that it's not legit. I can't see why most of them are ever sent: "Reply to your message" "Hi Bill", etc. with garbage. How do they think such titles and messages will get people's interest?
