Maybe... or maybe just a high success rate with only two choices
(50%)?  What if you were to add other choices to slant the field a
bit, like "I'm not just a Spammer; I'm also a mindless, evil
automaton"?  That would lessen the success rate to 1/3; another choice
would bring it down to 1/4, etc.  It may sound silly and fruitless,
but it might also work, while keeping the "right" choice obvious.  And
adding a bit of humor might not be a bad thing.
