If your response contains what they deem banned information, the Golden Wall will block you, but will block you both ways, meaning any outgoing request from China won't make it through either.

@ScriptCoded I am trying to communicate with a Chinese citizen with banned info. They would no longer want to communicate with me.

@ScriptCoded We will see if this smart or folly. I have been getting one spam message for months. Either they will ignore this, or I am off their list, or they start spamming more.

JsonBoa30142yDeviously sceptic. But it might not work. Although the server that sends the messages might be in china, it might just be hosted there and the real sender is based in some english-speaking fiscal pirate cove.
It would not be a stretch to imagine a Chinese company offering out-of-golden-wall "no questions asked" web services to foreigners.
Try to include a link to a documentary on the benefits of THC or something.

So I have been getting a lot of spam at work for various crap. Some conference attendee bullcrap, and other fake vendors, etc.
Someone pointed out to me that a lot of spam comes from China. So if you reply to the spam with topics the people of China are not supposed to see then they filter you out of the spam network.
Now I started replying to the most prolific spam with this as a link:
"1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
I will let you know if this helps reduce or increase my spam.
