But it is fairly generic text that a spammer can simply include in their spam to lower their scores. I'm leary about negative scoring like that. A spammer could really just say it to score lower and not mean it. Which rule is it that says "Spammers lie."? ;-) If anything it would probably make the message sound more legit to to a spam-illiterate person. "Oh well if they really sent this message to thousands of people, I'd better click the link fast to see if I win the prize!" or something like that.
