The Family That Spams Together Stays Together

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the thats-just-bizarre dept.

Anonymous Coward writes "The Globe & Mail has a story about an Ontario, Canada man who is being sued, along with his father and brother, by Yahoo under the CAN-SPAM Act. The Yahoo suit claims that Eric Head, along with his father and brother, were sending out millions of spam emails per month, as well as compiling lists of email addresses to sell to other spammers. Eric's company, Gold Disk Canada Inc., gathered lists of email addresses and sold them for $29.99 for 100,000 email addresses on up to $1,599.99 for 10 million addresses."

    That's SO funny! I've never heard that one before! What a font of originality and comic genius you must be to have come up with that! I'll DEFINITELY be remembering that one so I can use it at all of my parties from now on.

    Thank you for making me laugh harder than I ever have in my life. You, sir, are brilliant. I am ever so pleased that the mods also found it as obviously funny as you did, yet didn't give as many mod points to any of the comments pointing out anything that said otherwise! How completely unbiased of you all...thank you once again. I am in awe.
