DID YOU KNOW THAT YOU CAN GET PUT ON A SPAM LIST AS AN ANTI- SPAM TERRORIST AND THEY WON'T SPAM YOU ANYMORE? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, it's true, here is how. |
|
|
|
If the spammer left you a web site url go to it and see if they have return e-mail and a guest page, if they do fill up as much of the guest page with offensive language against spamming as you can repeat until there is no space left you must leave your e-mail address so they know you did it. Send them anti-spam e-mail over and over, what I do is in the subject I put in "f*** off spammer" and in the message area I put in "this is a direct response to your spam, this will not stop until you quit spamming people" I copy and paste that sentence and copy and paste the new double sentence and so on until its huge. If the spam e-mail points you to a reply form, great, go to it and fill it out with offensive anti spam language, if they require credit card and phone numbers put in fake numbers of course. When you press the submit form and you get an error message correct it with fake info of course and when it finally goes through resubmit it over and over again, I understand that some of these spammers have to pay for each submission. I believe the above to be legal anti spam measures, if you don't then don't do it. Most anti spam sites will tell you not to do the above but I am fed up with spammers and I will keep doing it. |

A WORD OF CAUTION |
|
|
It is very rare that a spammer's return e-mail address is valid, they know they are doing something wrong and they know that if they leave a valid e-mail address it will get filled with anti spam mail. so don't bother to send a nasty reply via your e-mail reply to sender option. |

Here are some legal steps you can take to have spammers removed off the web. |

WHAT THE FREE WEB HOSTS ARE DOING |
|
|
|
Most of the major web hosts, including the free ones encourage us to report web sites that use their free space for spam regardless if the spam e-mail is sent through the host e-mail service or any other e-mail service. These web hosts all have an abuse e-mail address that you have to look for. Please note when you report an offender to a web host include the offender url and explain that the site is used for spamming and send the offender's spam e-mail as well. Please be polite to the web host, these people are fighting on our side and if they confirm that the site is used for spamming they will shut it down, I've seen this done. |

WHAT THE FREE E-MAIL SERVICES ARE DOING |
|
Most of the major e-mail services encourage us to report spam e-mail to them. My provider hotmail are even taking offenders to court. All these providers have an abuse e-mail address that you have to look for. Please note when you report an offender, make sure you include all the headers with the offending e-mail. The e-mail service abuse address has all the info you need. Please be polite to the e-mail service. these people are fighting on our side and if they confirm that the e-mail is used for spamming they will shut it down, I've seen it done. |

|
|
|
WHAT THE INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERS (ISP) ARE DOING |
|
|
Most of the major internet service providers do not tolerate spammers on their service You should learn how to get the spammers isp off the spam e-mail, type "nospam" on the major search engines and lots of info will come up on this subject. Once you know how to get the correct isp of the spam mail you can report the offenders directly to their host isp and fast action to get the spammer off their service is almost guaranteed. Please be polite to the isp provider, these people are fighting on our side and if they confirm that the customer is using their service for spamming they will shut the person down, I've seen it done. |
