I'm thinking that a spammer makes money in two ways:
#1--advertiser pays them to send out a certain email to a certain group. Email lists can be general "guess" lists, or there can be lists of known addresses of people who have certain interests (from surveys, sweepstakes, etc.). Spammer has a rate for 100,000 emails, 1 million emails, and anywhere in between.
#2--spammer does the work of harvesting/collecting/creating/inventing a list of email addresses. Sells them to someone who wants email advertisement. Of course, they offer option #1 for an additional fee.
New special rate, today only! Just for You! Reach million in the first month to tell them about your product!
Sound familiar? Does to me--a spammer used his own list to advertise his services.
