Fight abuse with abuse? No thanks. I can live with folks
giving somewhat false info to mortgage sharks along with
a real phonenumber to go after the spammers, see how
the mortgage broker got his/her leads and maybe educate
him/her but flooding someone with garbage seems silly.

If you want, take a look at news.admin.net-abuse.email
newsgroup's formfucker threads: someone made a tool to
flood spamvertised contact forms with garbage and in those
threads people discuss the subject.

Occasional LARTs and proxypot (http://jackpot.uk.net/ and
http://world.std.com/~pacman/proxypot.html) fun is enough
for me.
