...best to not even reply to their emails? I receive so many scamming emails, typically from Nigerians, soliciting a host of information details, I want to email them back something aggressive to take me off their list. My sense, however, is that ANY response may be a risk in that they of course will not cooperate but will take note that they transmitted to an email address that is actively checked and has a warm body (e.g. potential DUPE in their crooked minds) behind it.
Is that accurate? That is, don't even respond, even if you have contacted the authorities and alerted them to the email address of the crook trying to scam you?
It becomes like swatting flies after a while and I'm just sick of it which is why I become tempted to chase these jerks, which I have done in the past with some success. I'm just curious if you have any more details on the risks that one may or may not incur by emailing back a single thing to scammers like this.
Thanks for the market intelligence!
