Question Odazio,


My name isn't Odazio. It isn't anything remotely like Odazio. I don't know a single person named Odazio. I've never typed nor read the word in my life. There are only 390+ hits for the word and very few of them are in English. Using "question" as the salutation doesn't make sense either because nowhere in the message is a question asked.

Seriously people, there are more effective ways to begin a fraudulent advertisement than this.

Listen up, Monty told me on Wednesday that ur wife been not satified

I don't know anyone named Monty and I'm not married. If I did know a Monty, he'd have to be a real close friend for me to reveal my wife's bedroom boredom. And I am not close friends with people whose grammar is so bad. All my friends know I look down on Net shorthand like "ur" and "u".
I can assist with that. Come see www.rxaig.org/ib/. I've been using
them
for a couple months now and nothing but praises for them.

If you go to that website, you'll find what I expected: a pitch for a male sexual enhancement drug. Go to the root of that website and you'll find a pitch for a weight loss drug. No friend of mine would send me to those places, not without talking to me in person or over the phone.

I don't know a single person named Cristoubel and no, your shit wasn't helpful because every aspect of it seems designed to turn everyone away who possesses a functioning mind.

What the hell is up with spammers? Are they simply leaving the production of the e-mail text up to drunken, one-handed Ecuadorian vagrants suffering from a mild case of schizophrenia? Besides the occasional accidental wisdom in spam and the rare lighthearted moments, spam is drudgingly awful.

Subject lines are terrible. Sometimes they are stupidly offensive. And the content isn't any better.

Really folks. This is toilet scum-level work here. You disgrace yourself with every click of the Send button. Find some honest work for gawd's sake.

It's all about the .001%

If I send out 1000 emails (for free) and .001% respond, that's 1 sale. $3 in my pocket for $0 advertising expenses.

If I send out 1000000 emails (for free) and .001% respond, thats 10000 sales. $30,000 in my pocket for $0 advertising expenses.

Regardless of the actual response rate, it can be very small and the spammer still makes money.

But any talk of making e-mail cost money, and that is immediately discounted as ridiculous, even though the free nature of e-mail is what allows spam to work.

If you want to get rid of spam, EVERYONE needs to stop replying. But there are some so uneducated or too busy to realize sometimes that a message even is spam.

Technology is not the answer this time. People are the answer, and you can't solve people.
