Deadbeats' Hall of Lame, Special Anti-Spam Spam Edition

WARNING!

Do not sign me up for any mail lists. Studio42 does not accept such unsolicited business. Also, since I've recently been getting a flood of such e-mail from various people and organizations I don't wish to deal with, their names will end up here, along with their home and business addresses, and phone numbers, whenever possible.
Please realize that 99.9% of internet users DON'T want your crap in our e-mail boxes.
Minimum fine for violation of this policy allows me to legally bill/invoice for $500 and this can be escalated to a court of law.

Disclaimer lines placed in every signature file I have now: 

|Commercial and/or unsolicited email and/or spam will be processed for|
|   a $500 handling fee. Unsolicited sending constitutes acceptance.  |
This pretty much indicates what actions I'm am allowed to take.

This is a spam. This is one of MANY spams from this revenge spammer. My web site is incorrect,
but it does list MY web site and one of my work addresses and that 800 number.

I am calling the police and FBI on this matter.


  • See the lookups

Additional lookups, where required, will be coming very shortly.

Three others were sent as well:

Up until now, I have simply left this issue alone. It has come to my attention that there are
quite a few people who think spam is good and would think nothing of forging addresses and
stealing service in order to spam, or even do something like this.

I think I owe it as a service to my loyal visitors and all the other nice people I've helped
to show them the FULL impact this spam had on EMAIL only. I will NOT address the other issues
that are associated with this attack.

First, here are the complaints I recieved at my work address:

      

    1. Subject: Purported anti-spam spam

    2. Subject: Spam Alert - PLEASE REMOVE

    3. Subject: Looks like someone has been misusing your email address :-(

As you'll notice, the maturity and anger levels vary greatly. Regardless, these are 
COMPLAINTS, as a DIRECT result of this spam.


    
Now for complaints received by me at my Postmaster@Studio42.com account:

      

    1. Subject: JUNK EMAIL was Re: This is NOT SPAM !!! Join the fight against SPAM

    10. Subject: Re: This is NOT SPAM !!! Join the fight against SPAM

    
These are complaints received by me at my Abuse@studio42.com account:

      

    1. Subject: Is this yours, or a revenge SPAM?

    2. Subject: spam report 1 / 26th November 1997

    

These are the ones that went to spam-hater@studio42.com:

      

    1. Subject: Spam Alert - PLEASE REMOVE

    2. Subject: junk email possibly from www.studio42.com/spamhaters

    

This is the one sent to my MediaCity account. Obviously some smart spam-fighter did a 
"whois" lookup on my domain and did the CORRECT thing by notifying the folks
responsible for the domain name used.

    If you are one of the dilweeds who sent me unsolicited email or are someone thinking about it, drop dead.

    BLOW IT OUT YOUR ASS!
