Is anyone pursuing legal action for those responsible for the
"Interesting Free Offer" or "Magazine Club Inquiry Center "
spams ** ? They come along every few
days and they seem to have devized a pyramid scheme like approach
so third parties actually send the spams. Or maybe the third partiy
references are forgeries. But the Fax number and the
PO box would seem to be the way to track down them.
I'd support some real action. Does anyone know how good a case
could be made against them? Seeveral have come had aol
From: headers lately. I dont know if those are real and whether
aol users are realy involved. If so maybe they could publicize
an adonition against doing this.
BTW I have them (so far) filtered out so they dont get posted to my
list but I hate to just delete/ignore such trash. It's a bad
precident.
