I received an SMS today about my mobile number having won 30 million from the BMW company, and all I had to do to claim it was to send my name, address, contact number, age and occupation to bmw34681@gmail.com.
Now there's a person named James Veitch who encourages people to reply to such emails using a newly created pseudonym email ID, just for the fun of it.
I've heard of email tracking pixels, but wanted to know if in the process of having fun wasting a spammers time, would it be possible for them to actually find out who I am or where I am or be able to do anything malicious, even if I take care to only give them incorrect/fake information the whole time?
In short: Is it safe to play games with such scum?
