It's always a bad idea to encourage spam. Think about it. If you buy 
anything from a spammer, or even look at their website, it just lets them 
know that their stupid ad is working. Meaning that they will send you 
even more spam, and sell your email address to other spammers. So don't 
even consider buying anything from spammers. 

Even if they promise that THIS SPAM is good spam, and going to get rid of 
those other bad spams. 

Reminds me of a beggar I gave money to some time ago. He had a good 
story. He said that his car had an engine problem. He said he had been 
stuck here for 3 days because he spent all his money on the car parts & 
was totally out of gas. But if he could just get a few bucks gas money he 
could make it the 30 miles home.

So his story distilled down to: "pay me & I'll leave". I gave him $5 and 
continued on my way to the store, feeling good about helping out someone 
that really just needed a little "leg up".

Later, On my way home, I saw the same guy drinking out of a paper bag in 
the alley. So! I had inadvertently bought him that malt beverage. I felt 
burned, and realized that I had been conned, he had lied to me, he wasn't 
leaving town today, he probably didn't even have a car and he had 
profited by tricking me.
