I get that feeling when I press "report spam" and gmail suggest I "unsubscribe from them", that that's exactly what the spammer want, a ping back so they know I'm susceptible, that I'm an engaging fool, and get put on all the lists.

Not sure if emails work the same way, but this is how phone scammers work

If you interact with a phone scammer, send them to hell or do anything at all with them, you just get added to a big lost of people that respond to scam calls and so you get more calls
