If you reply, the spammer knows that he has reached a valid email or text address and will continue to bother you.

@4meAndyou And those initial contacts are probably automated, so a "smart ass" reply probably won't even be read by anyone -- any reply will trigger the next message.

@4meAndyou Yup I'm well aware and while it's so tempting to give them crap I never would reply. Was just curious if anyone has and the results.
