Because there is 1 or more out there who don't know any better and get sucked in.

And when you look at it as being able to use a name book or dictionary (readily available mind you) along with a list of domains. Once you add them together, the resources needed for sending the emails is tiny.

So it takes no investment to send out a million emails. And every valid response after the first one is bonus.

There is a movie called "Idiocracy" that sums up the stupidity of the
human race quite well.... it's a very funny movie if you're in the right
mood, otherwise it's..... well... stupid!
