Spam in email can be annoying and oftentimes it’s all a scam, however a recent research study has found that when products are involved they are often delivered more times than not.

Researchers used temporary credit cards to place orders with Spam email and they found that in a majority of orders the items they requested were actually delivered, items that included fake Rolex watches, pills and various other items.

According to researchers, not only did their items arrive but their credit cards were not tampered with in any way, such as future fraudulent activity being found.

Researchers also found that even after “falling” for spam email offers they did not see an uptick in the amount of future spam they received.
