BUT NOW when the recipient of these emails collects all these spammer(s) campaign(s), in a few months a legal representative can go to that spammer and say, ok "where are all the 2257 documents for these galleries you "mailed"?". If the spammer says "I dont have them", then they face legal action, hopefully enough legal action where they wont be able to afford to spam again
