I hate all the spammers. I don't know if emailing them back is a good idea, though. I imagine 90% of the time, the email given is not their own.

He told me you said no, so I couldn't resist. Unfortunately, right after I gave him all the info, he stopped replying. Then, coincidentally, someone stole my identity.
