A Day in the Life of a Spammer

BOredAtWork writes "CNN has a very interesting piece on a day in the life of a spammer. This guy claims to be totally on the "up and up" and is looking to take spam to "the next level." It's good to hear the other point of view once in a while - even if just for the humor. " I consider spam a necessary evil honestly- as long as spammers use appropriate headers (so I can procmail it out of my box) I don't really care. But then again, I have at least 10 email addresses, many of which are very public, so spam is a several-times-a-day thing. Perhaps we need a petition "I will not buy something if sent bulk spam advertising it". I bet if we could get 100,000 names, people would notice... then again, I could just post the 800 numbers here every time I get spam. Then if each Slashdot reader called them, we'd put 'em out of business *grin*.
