That is just how those spammer scum operate. I wish people would learn not to open those emails or click on those links.

I wish they wouldn't forward them to me. It is incredible how so many people blindly believe on any bs written on an e-mail. Sometimes I think there is a switch, that turns on when people sits in front a computer, and puts their brain in standby mode.

Spammers know there are a LOT of clueless people out there. There is no anti virus that will take care of that. I never, ever click on an email with a sender that I do not recognize. Plus my email has excellent Spam control. Once in a while an "offer" comes though into the mail box but those are easily recognized. I use web based email.

The real reason behind so much Spam are all the people who have no clue and that is a lot of people. So sad.

A very large amount of email is Spam.
