Awww, their answering machine seems to be full. They're either not home, or others figured out their phone number. Maybe a call at 4 am would be better. I read a document awhile back about taking action and spamming the spammers back by filling email boxes, fax machines, and answering machines and bugging them all hours of the night. I don't remember where the document was though, I think someone posted it to the list a couple of weeks ago. If companies only get bogus information and useless crap, it's not even going to be worth it to wade through all the crap to find legitimate orders and eventually they'll consider spam a waste and stop. In any case, you can send free faxes from zipfax.com. Usually, I just paste the text of the spam into it a few hundred times and hit send. There's a Mixmaster anonymous remailer interface at http://www.gilc.org/speech/anonymous/remailer.html also. This one is a good one to use to fill their box full of crap. If they have a form on their webpage, fill it out with seemingly good info, but make the phone number the number to an FBI office, FTC, or a police station. I really really really hate spammers. I guess I have too much time on my hands too. :) > -----Original Message----- > From: Austad, Jay > Sent: Sunday, January 07, 2001 1:49 PM > To: 'tclug-list at mn-linux.org' > Subject: RE: [TCLUG] Are you a 'For Dummies' with Computers? > > > Here's the person who sent the spam and their phone number. > I'm calling > them now to yell at them.
