I was bored and decided to browse the spamtrap, and found:
"This is not spam, because we are giving you an opportunity to remove yourself from out database. We have received your email address through a system that harvests e-mails from the Internet to which we have no control."
(spelling errors left uncorrected)
That's like saying "This is not spam. Well it is, but it's not our problem because the nice person we bought 100 million email addressses from for $29.95 said it was OK."
I often create a fake e-mail address (one which I can easily /dev/null.'
I recieved a spam referencing a .cjb.net site, and a valid return address. I CC'd the customer on my abuse complaint to .cjb, and his e-mail provider.
I accidentally left my sig on which included my cell phone (work) #.
I got a voicemail the next day (I should see if I have a way of archiving the voicemail to a WAV file), he essentially says he's not a spammer - he bought this list of names from someone who guraranteed him they were 'opt-in' people - people who wanted to see HIS e-mails.
Ummm.. Ok.
CJB.NET site now a smoking crater.
