I'm really not sure that I'm giving them anything they don't already have, but i was speaking of incoming potential spam. Like notifications about class action lawsuits. Generally speaking, if a spammer knows something about me, that means it's already out there. And if they know enough about me, it's probably an email I can identify as not spam because they know things that spammers wouldn't know............ so I don't think I'm really pasting in any truly sensitive information in the first place, but I've tried to address the point anyway.
If it's not spam, you're telling the chatbot that you were one of the people whose penile implant malfunctioned and are part of the class action lawsuit about that. That means you're telling the Nigerian chatbot quality control expert about that.
