I just don't get it. Lots's of people already know about spams and there are still many spammers who wants to send spam mail to you. What is their purpose? What are they trying to achieve?

Those people are email marketing guy who wants to earn like us, they have this software that automatically send thousands of email to email addresses that they attained or got from email software. Automatically if someone got email and he or she read it got interested then buys the product this email marketing guy earn commisions on what the email owner bought , they earn very good money on it. just delete or put it in spam folder or send it spam so no problem when another day you will never see them again because you just send them to spam folder. i too have a lot of spam email I just delete it or put it in spam folder. i read a lot of those things and it's against the law to send email never try it. i do SEO but not those illegal things I do Whitehat method such as back linking sites manually and earn a bit.

As for me, I believe that there are kinds of people that still NOT aware of spam...There are still people who are technologically-challenged in this modernizing world...The spammers knew this fact and that is why they try their luck...Nevertheless, it does not take much energy to send the spam mails to hundreds of e-mails given that many of companies are selling the e-mail of their customer...Their purpose is simple, pulling other people's leg and gain profit from that...Hope that answer your curiosity...^__^ livecenter
