How to deal with spam from vendors. I have found that this really works. 1. Reply and WARN them. If you never hear from them again it has worked. 2. If step 1 fails, go to one of several hundred thousand sites on the web and get a software program specifically set up to 'e-mail bomb' them. (Sending them thousands of e-mails, randomly generated names etc. so they HAVE to open each one to figure if it is a mail bomb or a legit e-mail. If you use an anonomyzer site to make your e-mails impossible to trace, you can't get in trouble with your ISP and have your account pulled. 3. Once step 2 is complete, turn on the mail filter that comes with your communications package and block all e-mails from the original spammer and if you like, also their domain. So not only can [log in to unmask] not spam you again, no individual who is from evergreen.com can ever send you an e-mail that you will have to open. 4. If you can't do step three, get a real e-mail package! It really helps cut down on the Spam. You can set it so that it looks for names and domains to ignore and even key phrases, like "Free Sex" "I Made Money" "Make $$$" etc. 5. If by chance they list an 888 or 800 number, you can SPAM that too! Wait till they get their next phone bill. 6. If the 888 or 800 number is for a pager or better yet, a cell phone, have several people or better yet, several hundred thousand people SPAM these people back. They look at the pager number and have to call back, incurring long distance charges, and Cell Phones are around 25 cents a minute so even if you call them, let it ring, let them answer, say nothing, then hang up, they still have incurred a 25 cent charge. Now mulitply that buy 100,000. PLEASE NOTE: Harrasment using a telecommunications device is illegal (but one incidence of a "wrongly dialed number" is hard to prove) so you should spread around phone harrasment. We should have a discussion group called alt.spam.the.spammers where we list messages with numbers and e-mail addresses of people to SPAM. Let's see how they like it! Now you got me all riled up! Gotta make a few calls to Evergreen <G>
