Reply to Spam: Please Don't do this

Yesterday I got a spam asking me to update my Netflix account. Funny thing is I don't have a Netflix account. The email was a mass email that I immediately as you should to Netflix. Next thing in the trash it goes with proper blocking. This morning I woke to the same email, except this time is was a reply from one of the mass recipients telling them what a bunch of dumb a@#$% they all were... etc. etc. naturally I didn't open it and sent it to junk. Point is replying to them, all she did was validate that her email address, was well valid and now she should expect to receive a whole lot more spam. Please folks, Don't reply back to them at all! forward the email to either your email provider, or to whomever they are trying to imitate. Take Care Out There and Safe Computing.
