[SEL] OT SPAM

They can also watch for creation of new registered domains. If you look at
the headers of some spam, you'll see it's a fact, they simply mass-mail to
randomly generated names at domains. Domains they can verify exist, the
names they generate by the millions.
Since it only takes like a 1 percent response for them to make big bucks,
the payoff is high.
