Hilarious idea.

But one of the first things I would have coded is preventing the same message to be sent again.

The examples are full of that.

You could consider repeat messages as adding insult to injury. For example you can see in the 24-message conversation with the SEO company, that repeat messages seem to aggravate the spammers.

Indeed..

In fact why not take the inbound spams, and save those... and sprinkle them in to the outbound replies?
