Only if you measure "success rate" as the number of scammed people per
1000 clicks on the scam link in the email.
If you measure it as the number of scammed people per 1000 emails sent
out then you'll get a better success rate with a correctly worded email.
I guess it depends if the scammer is paying for website bandwidth or not.
