I wrote this article. I can't take credit for the 'yes' idea, but some of these scammer's reactions were funny. I feel like I caught a few of them at the end of a long day.

You might choose another word to avoid they use your 'yes' to enter subscriptions or the like.

Maybe something like " Mmm.. donuts!"

If they don’t have any payment info they can’t very well subscribe you to anything.

As soon as they have your address they can start billing you, then the burden is on you.

Is yes your address?

You have no idea about spammer databases, have you?
