Spammer earned up to US$750,000 a months
Slashdot describes the case of a spammer who earned between US$400,000 and US$750,000 a month.
He would send out 10 million e-mails a day and received between 10,000 to 17,000 credit card orders, thus making money on perhaps only one of every 30,000 e-mails monthly.
His comment, when sentenced to a 9-year jail sentence? "When you're marketing to the world, there are enough idiots out there."
And this despite all the warnings and educational campaigns out there warning of spam and phishing and so on.
