Finally, an answer for what to do with all of that spam that finds your way into your inbox that violates the CAN-SPAM act of 2003. Profit from it!

The gist of how to create a spam reducer and profit center is as follows.

1) You place a mailto: link with an image captcha onto your favorite website, forum, or social networking site, anywhere you would normally put a mailto: link for others to contact you.

2) When real people use your link, they are prompted to agree that the mail they are sending is in compliance with the CAN-SPAM act of 2003, and the inform them that the email address automatically populated is illegal to email to. They simply follow the instructions to enter the correct address from the image and send you your spam free email.

3) Bots and automated email address harvesters given the special poisoned email address that they may send mail to, in violation of CAN-SPAM, though humans are visually warned. (if you want to be technical, the information is there for the bot to pass you up also), but as they only search for specific keywords, so the warning ans use agreement goes over their robotic heads, and they spam you anyway, in documented violation of the law.

4) You get your spam free email, and all spam is sent to the poisoned address, which auto replies to the sender with an email letting them know that they are in violation of the CAN-SPAM act, and are given the following choices for how to respond.

a. call us on the phone and prove it was just a mistake (some real people cannot follow directions), so that all can be forgiven, and the mail retrieved from the poison mail box.

b. Pay you cold hard cash not to take them to court.

c. If they choose not to respond, it is usually not a human that sent you the mail anyway. If the spammer does not respond within 10 days, then the spammer is assumed to have, but waives their publishing rights to the content in question (remember to include that in the body of your auto populated mailto: link) and it is then emailed directly to your blog for publishing, and the advertising revenue created by the affiliate links you assume ownership over just might collect some money for you.

d. Instead of fearing to place your email in high traffic areas of the Internet, you now rush to such places with no qualms. Some using this technique may even rush at the chance to kidnap more Spam for profit!

I hope this is a huge success.

What would you do if you got paid every time you got spam in your inbox?
