ok everyone, i am not computer savvy at all. I do not understand what comes from people spamming. Question always appear on here sent from 'spammers'. What good does a spammer get from doing this. It is the same on the other websites.Many websites have them all the time trying to get you to add them to your friend list. can someone please explain to me what these people get out of doing this? are they hoping that someone comes to their website and spends money? if that is the case, how do the 'spammers' get paid??

Sorry, i just really dont understand this.

  1. its kinda like commercials on television  some people buy the products that they sell  

    go to options in your mail and put on the spam guard that will help keep your box clean


  2. They usually do it because they think its funny to annoy people.

    Or possibly so you go to a website which will give you a virus.


  3. usually they get paid for every person that actually clicks the spam.

  4. If 0.001% of people who receive the message are stupid enough to send money, they can become millionaires. At least until they are caught and prosecuted. They deserve to be in jail.

  5. They get paid, when ppl click on the spam. They receive a $ amount for how many clicks they can generate. It's big business on the net.

    If you're asking so as to find out how to become a spammer, don't send any my way or I'll be really peed off.
