That's one of the reasons I've not been huge on the recent (within the last several years) increase in "scam baiters" and stuff. As much as it does waste the time of the scammer and as helpful as some of the big ones are, normal people who do it are having little effect and ultimately just putting themselves on more and more lists.
Scam baiters spread awareness and education of modern scams. That's a huge plus.
Agreed, though, "don't try this at home" should be emphasized more.
