Spammer’s Psychology

To make money at all costs,
because the spammer is so ugly and repulsive
he or she has to pay to get sexual pleasure.

Three things: they think it's a cool, fun and lucrative thing to do. They all suffer from a pronounced delusion of grandeur. Every time they get publicity - no matter how negative it is -, their ego is being fed.

Here goes.

It's all about money per message. I'm assuming most of the spam companies are paid bulk rates.

Next up is how to automate the system so you aren't stuck paying for unneeded staff.

Then you get paid money for doing next to nothing.

I'd say thats the closest to spammer psychology.
