    Thumbs down When will they stop Spamming

    I got too many spam emails from domainparking and now domainlandscape
    They need to stop spamming people.
    The email signed as William Fox - Fox needed to go back to the jungle.

    Spend the money to do proper advertising/marketing instead of spamming.
    It only has a negative effect!

    They lost my business even before I would consider them.

    Who sold them our email addresses, I get spam on an email, that I do not use to register any domains on, simply for namejet, and a few other programs, not public email at all, where they could scrape whois for info?

    Yes, I noticed the same thing. I think at least one site was compromised and the database leaked.

    I've long considered building a system to counter-attack spam.

    I would 1st warn the offender to stop or face the consequences, and the consequences will increase ten-fold with each violation.

    So, the next spam I forward to my system, which has been set up with the REAL email addresses of as many people at the company as I can find, along with their upstream ISP admin. Each address gets 10 emails, nearly identical but slightly randomized. It contains their spam plus the warning that this will get ugly quickly.

    The next offense gets 100 emails to each address... then 1000 to each address, and so on.

    I've successfully stopped spam in the past by contacting the executive boards of PARENT companies.... that has been VERY effective, and even hilarious when they REPLY ALL thinking only their fellow exec will be getting a copy of their conversations with each other.

    Both domainparking and domainlanscape are located in the same building.
    I believe they are the same people.

    You are correct John.
    I wonder if Igal is aware or possibly endorses the bad practices of his offshoots.
