Someone forwarded a spammer's email to Spamnesty, which replied to the email, pretending to be a person called David Levy and starting a conversation.
This is that conversation.
Hi ,
Hope you’ve been having a good week!
Apologies for the cold email but I wanted to get in touch because I
currently look after accounts for a number of companies that are similar
to, who use my company Side <http://uk.side.co/partners> to help them with
their lead-gen and sales prospecting.
I frequently hear from them how time consuming lead sourcing and qualifying
is, and thought this may be the same for you too.
We allow you to outsource tasks such as lead-gen via our online platform
quickly and with minimal effort, as we do all the interviewing, admin and
invoicing. Once you’ve posted a task you can have someone sourcing and
qualifying leads in 24hours.
If you’re able to spare 10minutes, I’d love to go over how our platform
works and the ways in which we might be able to support your existing sales
team
Would this afternoon or tomorrow work for a call?
Hello,
Thank you for your email! However, I don't know if this will fit in our budget. Is there anything better you could do?
David Levy

Hi David,
What would you budget be? We do have a reduction in rates after a number of
hours or if you frequently work with the same freelancers.
Hello,
That is very helpful, thank you. Do you perhaps have some literature I could look at, or could you send me some more information about what exactly makes you unique?

Hi David,
I've linked a short presentation here
<https://s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/weslash-static/Side+-+Overall+Presentation+-+Antonia-1.pdf>
that explains in a little more detail about what we do.
(We're also about to relaunch our website over the weekend, which should
also help explain how our platform works, and the differentiators with
other companies in our space.)
What we largely emphasise is convenience and speed.
You post your task when you need support, specifying the role, date, and
duration and we handle the rest; from sourcing and interviewing through to
the invoicing and payments processing.
We also have a turn around time of 24-72 hours for most tasks, which allows
you to be reactive to demand.
This allows you to get support for only when you need it, rather than being
locked in a longer term contract or commitment.
Hope that helps a little - let me know if you need anything clarified or
answered,
Antonia
