I mean really - who are these people? It baffles me that people actually do this for a living. How much money do they make?

Everyday spammers find new routes to try to get into your email inbox. Spam consists of unwanted advertising, but some can transmit viruses, ad ware or spy ware on to your computer and cause problems. A lot of time is wasted sorting through the email received and deleting Spam email While it is not possible to totally eliminate Spam email, you can keep junk emails manageable. I have seen a brief study on spam in the following site. It is very useful .I recommend that you adopt the methods suggested there and get benifitted.

usually it is a company with a database of e-mails adresses (they pick up from websites etc) and the e-mails get sent automatically to advertise stuff.
However some people send a spam e-mail to friends for a joke etc..

I don't think its individual people, I think there are computer programs that send thousands of bulk emails per minute.
