They will rely on people messaging them back, then they will try to get your email address. They can sell lists of active email addresses that other scammers can use to send you more messages about scams - buying pills; receiving/making money payments; buying diplomas; accepting a 'job'. They hope that you'll fall for one, and they'll get a payout.

It costs them nothing ... except time, which they have a lot of!

Please consider the wealth of detail and care with which this spammer has written his/her message!
