I still wonder about the legality of this type of spamming, if the government were to set up a sting by putting up a proxy they could probably catch some people that are in the country pretty easily, I wonder how serious the charges could be in regard to this kind of thing if they wanted to trump it up for whatever reason if you got the wrong person butthurt
they are called 'honeypots' and sometimes anti spam people would set them up, not sure about the government though but using proxies that are trojaned pc's is illegal and you can go to jail for it.
