Don't they realize they're only ticking people off?
Do they honestly expect me to ever come back to their site if the only way to stop those serial popup's is to disconnect from my server and close all the windows?
Do they really think that someone with an email address ending in .nl is going to get a new mortgage in the US?
My question is for anyone who is actually involved in this business: how on earth do you expect to get any customers from this kind of behaviour?
Someone has to be responding to them.
If no one responded to these they would dry up in a few days.

Again an economic analysis. It must be cheaper to send to the whole list than to pay to filter it. If filtering payed they would do it.

If you have a product that's selling for $50.00 and if it costs you $100.00 to send out an email to 2 million addresses, you only need 2 shmucks in that 2 million to buy and you've broken even, everything else is gravy.
Sales has always been a numbers game. The numbers just explode when it comes to email due to the 'low-cost-ness' of it.
It definitely, definitely works. I hate it :)
