I've never understood how spammers make money. I can't believe that the response rate for these justifies their continuation. I know how cheap it is to flood the world, but still....

I have had my bank account wiped out five times by some Nigerian, but the e-mail I got today is a sure thing. I am already counting my millions.

I let eHarmony have it the other day. I called them up and they got an earful. They were using a 3rd party “re-mailer” out of Romania (which is where I and spamcop.net were able to trace the header) that had successfully phished an e-dress I use only for special yahoogroups discussions.
