Their research indicated I was interested in this. I think their research is actually a 
spam-list CD, rather than actual work. Either that or the interprestation is "if you have
a pulse, we want to work you like a dog to make us rich, you bottom level future MLM'er".

Typical practices of theft of services and forgeries.

Thanks to crappy HTML and extreme OVER-USAGE of HTML, this spam is pretty much rendered
unreadable as-is. Why can't people accept that HTML belongs on "http" and not EMAIL?

No wonder this person lost their job, they are a stupid and inconsiderate asshole.

This spam is 40K, but would be a mere 16K if the HTML was done properly. Most of the
bulk consists of POINTLESS repeat mark-up.

Trina isn't a mother or a full time account, as other Karen Liddell spammers claim, so I'll
give this up and coming soon to be ex-spammer credit for creativity. Bottom line is that
she's just another low-life hawking a MMF of selling MLM scams. Seems she's not a very
bright student. Perhaps something remedial would be better for someone who rides the short

This shows how truly stupid spammers are. Either that, or they harvested and de-spammed
the email address for Spam Hater at Studio42. They are talking about how to avoid fraud
as they steal service and forge headers. At least they have a toll-free number:

1(888)596-0956.

Odd how they have chosen to use fraud to help combat fraud. Perhaps this whole thing is a
fraud?

See the lookups
UPDATE: June 23, 1998
The upstream provider has informed me they have WARNED the offending site. They also state
that if it happens again, they weill be terminated. Odd how a little bit lower you can see
a second offense to another account.

See the notice

ELI.Net's initial response. Odd, these arrived out of order. Oh well, that's OK, I want to
paint a COMPLETE picture, especially since I am satisified with Eli.Net's responsiveness.

Basically, what they are doing is plugging their search engine, and letting us know that
they don't follow the robots exclusion standard, so they'll harvest your site. If that wasn't
enough, they have a remove function to harvest live addresses.
