---- Web Forms being Spammed

Why do they bother spamming my web form ?

We are a small manufacturer with an online store.

We have a simple Captcha on our contact us and order forms.

(I hate the Captchas that you have to try about 3 times because they are so hard to read)

Yet about once or twice a week some clown breaks into our form and spams us with a message taking them to a website which tries to sell diet pills.

Do they really believe that I would go to their web site to buy some diet pills when they have spammed me ?

But to me it is a real PITA as we do not get many sales so when we see Form2Mail in our email we get all excited !

Why do they bother ?

They must have to crack thousands of captchas to get one visit or sale !
