Spammer Hangout's Membership Roster Left Exposed

MikeCapone writes "According to an article at Wired News, spammers feel the need to be part of a community too. The Bulk Club is one such community. A message on the site states that it offers, for a $20 monthly fee, a variety of how-to articles, spamming software, a members' message board area, and 300,000 FRESH e-mails/week. Unsurprisingly, the 'Law & Ethics' section is 'Members Only.' The good part is that, because of a glitch, the membership list of this charming organization was left exposed on the website."

  1. 2003, the year e-mail was rendered useless by Fastball · · Score: 1, Offtopic
    I've spent the last two weeks revising all of my mail related Perl scripts to play nice with our mail server which is a moving target now as our mail admin tries to block spam and virii. I'm barely half done.

    I get 160+ spam messages a day in from my original ISP given mail account. None worth my time.

    I need to get out more, because at this rate, I'm going to remember 2003 most for the way e-mail was rendered useless.
