Checkthisout Inside the Spam Cartel. --former spammer going to hell...

Required reading check this article out.

Basically spammer x works 10 hours a day, makes bank then realizes his mistakes.(after making bank) . Decides he needs a life.
Funny quote though
"Response rates to spam tend to be a fraction of 1 percent. But Ed said he once got a 30 percent response rate for a campaign. The product? A niche type of adult entertainment: photos of fully clothed women popping balloons"
"He sent spam to recovering gambling addicts enticing them to gambling Web sites. He used e-mail addresses of people known to have bought antianxiety medication or antidepressants and targeted them with pharmaceutical spam"
Talk about spinning marketing.

you can buy the book here(afflink)

Here's the book on Rapidshare for those who prefer that.

RapidShare: 1-Click Webhosting

It's a .chm file inside of the .rar.

I believe I read this and he says he made $10,000/week. Doesn't that seem pretty low for a big time spammer? Especially if he wasn't using opt-in and such.
