Here's a site that does something similar http://www.419eater.com/ . This site is targeted at 419 scammers out of Africa. I don't know exactly how much good their work does, but it's pretty funny sometimes. Dave King http://www.remotecheckup.com
Why not encourage everyone to reply to phishers and spammers with fake information? Get a spam, order it using a fake name and credit information. Get a phishing mail, go login to change your ebay/paypal password with fake credentials. GIGO, you know? I mean if they are getting a 1% or 2% return then if the same ratio were to respond with bad information it would make a lot of work for the folks profitting from these activities.
