Howdy, I've never believe the Craig's List messages or messages on /. are more than pranks. Attracting attention to the messages would be undesirable if they were the real deal. Ok, here's my conspiracy theory of the day. How spam could be used like a numbers broadcast. You "broadcast" the messages to the traditional list of victims and your agents. You maintain a constant stream of null messages hawking the usual wares. Some spam has messages embedded in the text or by stenographic means in the background. There's no obvious change in traffic or content so no suspicions are raised. The down side is if you have a list of recipients you might eventually be able to determine who the bad guys are by elimination. Something a numbers broadcast doesn't offer. It would be a slow process though. I'd guess the people responsible for thinking about these things have already thought of it but I've never seen it suggested anywhere.
