Dumb pondering--I wonder if any spam mail is legitimate...
Like if I were to hypothetically respond to the tHE Guy WHo TyPES LIKe THIS!!!!!! and order those discount Xanex pills for CHeAAP cheep ChEAP!!!!!!, I would actually get real Xanex pills.

Or those free $100 gift cards they are always talking about.

No, I am not actually thinking of responding to any spam mail. I was just curious as to how much of it is real versus made up BS.

2. I'm up for testing it...
I have a webserver so I can create a email account just for the experiment and I can get one of those "Green Dot" zero-credit pre-paid VISA cards so I'm not risking ID theft.

What I don't have is any spam email.
