Hi,

My Yahoo! email address was used as the return-path for stupid PORN SPAM *sigh*...

Now my inbox is being filled with bounced undeliverable messages. Spammers like these who have ABSOLUTELY NO ethics should have death penalty. :evil: How far can one slide back?!?!?!

Grrrrrr :mad:

Is there a way of stopping the bounced emails from coming in my mailbox? Apart from sending a notice to [email protected] and [email protected], which I just did...

I had a couple of a**holes using my email address to peddle their wares (penis enlargement, hgh, etc). View the source of the returned emails and you may be able to get the originating server and also the website itself. Check the whois to get a contact email (and complain to them).

Then get the contact email of the host of the porn site itself from their whois info (Complain to them). Go also to the site and if they are using Paypal, send a complaint to Paypal. Viewing the source of that page, you may also see the email they use for Paypal....send a complaint to that email's abuse section. Check out the whois info for their site and try and verify that the contact info is correct or not. If not, complain to the Registrar.

The particular group that was doing it to me also mentioned paying on their "secure" site, only problem was it wasn't secure....so I complained to Verisign, Thwate (sic) and the FBI about possible fraud.

Send all the relevant info to each of the above (and anyone else that you can think of). Although it was a pain receiving all these returned emails (plus a few others from angry recipients), it was fun seeing how quickly I could get their websites shut down. For a while, they would keep opening another website with another host as soon as they would get one shut down. I think there were about 8-10 before they finally quit.

If you want, pm me and I'll send you an example of one of the complaint letters I sent.
