Didn't get very far, server stopped responding.
I'll have another look tonight, but the gist of it was to generate random
details and pass them to curl (as in read html, set up variables, pass as
post data).
I'll have another shot tonight and see if i get something working.

Tried to have another crack at the site that spammed this list, but the
domain is a parking page now. To get an idea what I was on about though, I
looked through my spam folder for phishing scams...
TBH, I'd be dissapointed if my gran fell for this one, but the idea is sound
