Leslie S Gottlieb, thee are quoteth thusly:

My money's on the latter...

In the spamfighting community of nanae (news.admin.net-abuse.email),
there are a few "spammer rules":

         The Rules of Spam
Rule #0:  Spam is theft.
Rule #1:  Spammers lie.

   Sharp's Corollary: Spammers attempt to re-define "spamming" as that
   which they do not do.

Rule #2:  If a spammer seems to be telling the truth, see Rule #1.

   Crissman's Corollary: A spammer, when caught, blames his victims.

Rule #3:  Spammers are stupid.

   Krueger's Corollary: Spammer lies are really stupid.

      Pickett's Commentary: Spammer lies are boring.

   Russell's Corollary: Never underestimate the stupidity of spammers.

   Spinosa's Corollary: Spammers assume everybody is more stupid than
   themselves.

So whatcha wanna bet mr spammer is too danged dumb to spam for the
right site? <g>
