-=PCTechTalk=- Re: Mail-- annoying back or not

Better NOT to annoy em back.. you are only validating your mail address. 
Telling someone out there you are real..That's what they want is a live 
address to bug.   The more the bugs the merrier..more possibilites of 
getting what they want..NOT...

Don....how can one be certain beyond doubt?  If people want to annoy me
offering great rewards, or telling me I have won a lottery, I feel it is
better to annoy them back. What point is there in responding that you
are willing to participate in their 'scam', if the email address is a
spoof? In other words, for what purpose do people want to falsify an
email address except to spread a virus or some other mischief?

I must admit I am a bit lost here!!LOL

I'm guessing that as more people get 'annoyed' by unwanted postings,
surely the sooner the message will get home that that they spammers
unwanted -- hopefully!

Cheers
