an interesting anti spam tactic.

I was reading on slashdot the other day the suggestion that we should all keep a spare email address to attract spam and just reply to one offer a day - with fake details.

The idea being that Spam works on getting a response rate of a fraction of one percent, if that becomes one or two percent with most of those being junk, then the spam industry is no longer economic.

Intersting idea, but it takes time and you have to read the crap!
