I think barely legible letters send the following message: "WTF? Someone is screwing with me, I must be more careful. I must double-check everything." Frankly, I think the only use of this test would be to make it a part of a larger test, to measure the test subject's effort level.
Idea: give people the test in a normal font, but with "BY THE WAY WE'RE SCREWING WITH YOU" written across the bottom.
