Almost everyone who has a computer will have received at least one e-mail telling them they have won X million on some lottery or other, or, inviting them to help someone retrieve money from some bank account.
If we are wise, we delete the e-mail and block sender. We are also advised that viruses can be sent to us in any e-mail, so we are advised not to open any e-mails from someone we don't know.
What I would like to know is, why, or is it possible, for some clever recipients to send back an e-mail containing a virus to try to put these sites out of action.
I'm not knowledgeable enough to know how to do this, but, if I were it would seem like internet justice.
Has anybody ever done this or would you if you could?
