In my experience the average American goes into a leave nothing behind mode whenever baited with Free.
Just look at the kind of mayhem Black Friday precipitates, and that's not even free - just a promise of exceptional discounts.
The comedian Doug Stanhope has an amusing bit about free healthcare and how wastefully it would be consumed by Americans conditioned to maximally abuse anything offered free of charge.
Edit: I don't mean to suggest Americans have a monopoly on this sort of behavior, it's just the country/culture I'm by far most familiar with.
The spammers appear to be overwhelmingly Indian, based on the usernames in the screenshots. Which is somehow unsurprising to me (there are 1.5 billion of them, after all).
Non-Americans on the other hand hate free stuff.
