It makes their spam legitimate.

If you have a decent form then it should be pretty much spam crawler proof-ish.

For example, to be able to submit a form a basic math problem (that is
made randomly each time) such as 7 + 3 = <form field>  is enough to
beat a spam bot.

The spam bot would need to know the structure and functionality of the
form before it could submit it.
