What’s the Scam?
这是什么骗局?

To subscribe to my monthly email newsletter, you have to enter your information on the webpage, and then reply to an automatically generated email. This is, of course, to prevent people from subscribing addresses other than their own.
订阅我的月度电子报时,你需要在网页上填写信息,然后回复一封自动生成的邮件。这当然是为了防止人们订阅非本人邮箱地址。

Starting last weekend, I have been receiving a lot of individual responses to those emails. Always one line:
从上周末开始,我收到了大量针对这些邮件的单独回复。每次只有一行:

Thank you for the positive impact your emails have had on my life.
感谢您的邮件对我的生活产生的积极影响。

Your emails are a game-changer.
您的邮件改变了我的生活。

Your emails are a constant reminder of why I subscribed.
您的邮件不断提醒我当初为何订阅。

Your emails rock.
您的邮件太棒了。

Thank you for the time and effort you put into creating these informative emails.
感谢您为创作这些内容丰富的邮件所付出的时间和精力。

Thank you for the passion and enthusiasm you infuse into your email content.
感谢您在邮件内容中注入的热情与热忱。

Your emails consistently exceed my expectations. Thank you for the exceptional value!
您的邮件总能超出我的预期。感谢您提供的非凡价值!

I responded to the first few, because sometimes I do get these nice emails from readers and I hadn’t yet realized it was all fake. But so many, and all at once—this is obviously AI. And obviously a scam, except I can’t figure out what the scam is.
我最初回复了几封,因为有时确实会收到读者发来的这类友好邮件,当时还没意识到全是假的。但数量如此之多,且集中爆发——这显然是AI所为。显然是个骗局,只是我还没想明白骗局的目的。

The addresses are things like:
这些邮箱地址类似:

jnnvcddghjgfdryhj67@gmail.com
nbhgdfhjedty896565@gmail.com
jesikawells6873@gmail.com
niffelatopserean92@gmail.com
reinareyes983@gmail.com
htfhtfhhjkgth@gmail.com

All Gmail. None of the addresses has actually subscribed to Crypto-Gram. They could; whoever is sending the emails could easily have confirmed the subscription.
全是Gmail邮箱。这些地址实际上并未订阅《加密文摘》。它们本可以——发件人完全可以轻松完成订阅确认。

My first thought was pig butchering—wanting me to respond and turn this into a conversation—but no one has responded to any of my responses. Anyone have any idea?
我首先想到的是”杀猪盘”——希望我回复从而展开对话——但无人回应我的任何回复。有人知道是怎么回事吗?
