Is there anything to prevent guessing dozens of people until you guess the right one?



OP suggested that they might add a cost per guess.


There is zero chance this would work. Maybe if each email address started with 10 credits and chewed through them.


That sounds like both a good way to both monetize and rate limit spam guessing. I'm not seeing where OP suggested this idea, so I'm crediting you! Thanks. Or maybe I'm OP?



Ah lol I didn't figure anyone would read through that!


Nope! Beyond a lot of clicking :)
