Semi-OT: AF's emailing me

So I fire up the trust ol' (mostly unused) alternate Gmail account, the one
that I used to have in my sig, but not the one you should use if you want to
contact me (get all that?). In it, I see an email from "David Kacuba" - a
nice request that went something like this:

<quote>
need some exams microsoft
</quote>

That's it. No please, no thank you, no "I'm a cheating turd."
What's with these people? Perhaps I should give him a little credit, because
it occurs to me that he may have just googled "need some exams microsoft",
and when a thread in this NG popped up, he ripped my email addy out of it
and requested some exams. Misguided research, but research nonetheless.
Whatever, that's probably not the case. Anyway, my reply to him:

<quote>
Are you serious, dude? Firstly, why would you email this address? Secondly,
why do you think I would give you Microsoft exams? I don't even have them.
No one but Microsoft does. Besides, if I did have them and give them to you,
that would be breaking the NDA, not to mention cheating. I suggest that you
earn your MS certifications, not cheat your way through them. Damn, you're
an idiot.

Is this the future of arsechucking?

You should see the text in the requests to join my Certaholics group. I
really should start saving them, some of them are just unbelievable. In the
group description, I clearly state that if you're a SPAMmer, br@indumper, or
other cheater, please don't waste the time of BOTH of us by requesting to
join, yet the knot-heads try anyway. I fired off a reply similar to yours
to someone who basically said they heard my group was a great place to get
br@indumps. After sending my reply he said back something to the effect of
"Ok, sorry! I really don't want any br@indumps! Let me in!"

I probably get like a dozen new members a week or so, probably over 200
members by now, and nobody posts. I think they're nearly all looking for
br@indumps.

I just don't know what these people are smoking... what gives them the wrong
impression about my group?
