Guys, I'm new here but I have a cool idea.

This website is about distracting scammers so they don't prey on real victims right? Well, we could really cause a distraction by flooding a scammers inbox with emails. Their inbox would be so full that they couldn't even find message for real victims. If you are interested, I could do scammer of the day. I'll pick one scammer out of the 419eater gmail account and we all concentrate on them. We could just send tons of spam emails. If we each send 100 and even ten of us participate, thats 1,000 emails! They would really be having a hard time scaming if we did this. Anyone interested?

Mailbombing is a waste of bandwith, and worse: they'll just drop the account and start over from another. Re-contacting their old victims from a new account and just going on where they left off.
It's better to keep them at a certain address so we know how to reach 'm.

Maybe if the scammer switches address enough, the victim will realize what is happening and stop going along with the scam.

Agree with MOP. Unfortunately these guys already have dozens of boxes, so it wouldn't do much good.

^^^re: swapping boxes. I'd bet if people are predisposed to be victims anyway, they'll not notice the mailbox changes.

Did you read the advice given above? Obviously not, because you then ask for the eater email and password.

We don't do mail bombing, it's a waste of time, it has no effect on lads whatsoever, try doing a search of the forum, it's been brought up by new members as a suggestion many times, if we thought it would do any good, we would already be doing it, locking this on my way out.

This from one of our mods on another mail bombing topic:

Quote:

We don't encourage mail bombing lads. It has the same effect as having their accounts closed, which we also don't do. The reasons for this are that if they stick with one account there is a bigger chance of it being posted on anti scam sites, and thus being found by potential victims who do a search. Also, in the rare circumstance that law enforcement is investigating, a closed account makes all evidence that was in that account lost.
