Hacking the Hackers

This was the subject line for some spam I got today:

You are in a maze twisty little passages, all alike

A reference to Colossal Cave Adventure, commonly seen as one of the first mass-marketed computer games. How likely are serious computer geeks to fall for spam? (It was porn spam, so maybe the spammers figure once they got their intended audience to open the message, they'd turn into link-clicking zombies.)
