Chinese Outsourcing Studios email Spam and you.

Here is a simple idea somewhat funny. Next time a Chinese outsourcing studio spams your website or other email...
SEND THEM YOUR RESUME AND PORTFOLIO LINK.
ehh?

Hmm.. me thinks this isn't as common as I thought.
VERILY!
You understand when I say studio, I mean an outsourcing 3D game art studio.
A: They are spamming you a industrial artist, with spam meant for management. Simply because they send it to any address or website that has some 3d in it. With a economic proposal that could make you, or your entry level artists loose their jobs or have that much harder a time to find a in.
B: Spam em back asking for work. Will they ever hire you? Of course not! Your too expensive compared to the cheap labor they can get locally.
C: It will confuse them (especially with their grammar skills). It also might make them think that you have lost your job over their practices. Or that the US economy is in a worse position than they think. Heck, you could even write a small cover letter saying something about being layed off from last position and needing work.
In other words its a underhanded middle finger right back at em.
But like I said, if I have to explain the joke.. Darn!
You are a poet good sir!
don't let him fool you, thats his real stache
Codeman, Im not talking about here (hell I didn't even know they did it here till you just told me). I'm talking to when they send it to your personal emails and website accounts. Without even checking if you are a fellow artist or a manager. Just spamming you. Yes, though I agree, their spam can be disheartening for the entry levels.
