I always block them right away. My idea is that any interaction flags you as 'positive direct contact' in their scumbag networks, making them likely to increase the spamming. I realize the act of blocking may in itself trigger this, if they track undeliverable contact, but idk what else to do.
Why would blocking them trigger this? Should that not instead flag you as "not dumb enough to fall for our garbage"?
It could tell them there's likely a live person receiving their bullshit, so continue spamming with other means.
Bear in mind these are all just ideas I have about how they operate, based on nothing really. I try to imagine how spammers analyze data they receive to target us.
