paperclippyAre telemarketing and spam email really profitable? Does anyone actually say yes to telemarketers or click on the links in spam and buy stuff? Are there really that many people who would sign up for a mortgage based on junk email, or try to buy cialis from an illegal online drugstore?
I think the only people who buy stuff from telemarketers must be old folks who are losing their senses. But those people don't usually have email. Who is buying this stuff enough to make it profitable to spend the moeny on advertising like that?
All I can say is I'm glad we have caller ID, because I have already gotten two telemarketing calls (two minutes apart) this morning and it's not even noon yet.
