Does anyone see a pattern here? I have seen several posts by people asking a question about the value of a common coin. They always ask the same question IE..."i found this 1985s penny in my change. Can you give me the value? Thanks in advance" Even the "thanks in Advance" is exactly the same.
Maybe i am wrong but i think this is a way for spammers to test a potential place to hit.
Its kinda like those phone calls you get where nobody replies when you pick up the phone. Basically the idea behind the phone call is to see if someone answers. If someone does answers then that number is sent to telemarketers and you are hit by several calls very shortly after.
Am i paranoid or are these real idiots asking the dumbest questions ever?
