Not to mention those making money off the harvesting and selling of E-mail addresses.Thus providing the spammer with his list. I only supply my real E-mail address to trusted people and sites. For all the rest I' send to a dummy E-mail address that I never check and just delete from time to time. I love seeing the spammer getting in trouble but there are so many other parties involved that are just as guilty. Arresting the spammer is like closing the barn door after the animals have escaped. The problem needs to be addressed at it's source. They should all rot as far as I'm concerned. Especially those "Phishers" and "Scammers" who trick and lure the un-suspecting or technically un-educated. If the same person robbed me at gunpoint,he'd go to jail. What is the difference between that and robbing people via the internet. Then you have situations like ENRON. Don't get me started...lol I like the way Wanda Sykes put it. If someone robs me in an alley,they only get what I have on me at the time. Some "White collard" crooks are out there robbing people of their entire future and get a slap on the wrist. If even that.
