The other day, I got a notification mail from someone telling me that a message I had sent them was infected with Netsky (of course I responded by saying All Viruses Spoof Email Addresses, so Turn Off Notification You Fools). Now it seems that the spammers have my address, 'cos I got my first phishing email just now. I've just forwarded it to my home address.
Is there any danger in having a bit of sport by filling in dozens of totally spurious names and details in order to waste their time? Am I likely to leave myself open to hacking attacks, exploits on the spoof detail collecting site etc.? I use Firefox FWIW, have SP2 w/ firewall on. If so, are there any good 'anonymiser' sites I can use to hide my IP address?
Cheers,
Rich :¬)

. This one's supposedly from The Woolwich, but it's just as pathetically poor as the other one. If they're going to go to all the effort of running the scam, you'd think they'd get someone who can actually write good English to do the mails for them
