OT (humor?): Fighting back phishing

I got a phish for paypal the other day. I laughed at the
very obvious (to me) link 
when hovering over the link to log in and all...

I thought.. "wow - it'd be fun to write a quick script
to just POUND the page with
random words for the POST information."

Is that wrong of me?
