This and this!

How many people on Planet Earth have cell phones and Gmail or "online" email accounts? - Easily more than a billion.

If they hit 500,000 people how many will fall for the scam? - Just guessing but it could easily be in the hundreds possibly thousands.
... They wouldn't be doing it if it wasn't profitable. "They" just keep churning the numbers.
