Assessing spammer $ income from SM

Have you clicked on a link posted by a spammer in the past 12 months ?

The number of times that has happened is the Key to assessing how much $ they make by posting all the spam.

Please answer honestly.

Not all spammers are bots. I don't think this is a wise conversation to have as it will attract the wrong attention. I am closing it -- at least pending a discussoon by the mods/admins.

In any case, I think the methodology is flawed. It assumes a particular model for spam financing which may not be the one actually in place.
