This man replied to spam emails for weeks and this is why you shouldn’t do it! Or should you?

Most days some sort of rubbish pops up in our email from someone either trying to flog us something or cheat us out of our hard earned cash. The standard procedure is to delete on sight. But what happens when you reply? You run the risk of missing out on a hot deal of gold. Really!

It was just another spam mail in James Veitch’s inbox. He usually follows the norm. But something about that email made him hover the mouse over the delete button a couple of times before hitting the reply button instead. Thus began the week long conversation with the spammer.

Are you ready to take the risk? Before you start, take precautions and follow the rules always or you might end up dying, you never know. Prepare yourself for the most hilarious thing you will learn today. And, it would be a lesson of a lifetime, that’s a promise!

Follow along as writer and comedian James Veitch narrates a weeks-long exchange with a spammer who offered to cut him in on a hot deal, in this TED talk. Wait till the identity of the spammer is revealed! Don’t die, of laughter.
