Agreed, that has been our experience also. Also, be careful when identifying
yourself to spammers by telephone. It's fairly common for them to retaliate.
One person here talked to someone at CyberPromo who said she would be
removed. She wasn't, and spam to her seemed to get considerably worse after
the call. They've started using a "web spider" to pick email addresses off
her home page.
On the bright side: I've been told that CyberPromo has a "manifesto" of
sorts in the message headers of their spam, and you can use this to
auto-filter things from them.
