A Spamming Attorney Gets Sentenced To 40 Months

Posted by timothy on from the should-have-to-pay-rent dept.

www.sorehands.com writes "While one spammer, Robert Soloway, gets released on probation, the Feds send another, Robert Smoley, to the slammer for 40 months. I know about Smoley because I tracked him down, and beat him in court. Not only was he an attorney, he still has not lost his license, yet. The IRS contacted me as a result of seeing my web site, and I gladly assisted the IRS in tracking his business. He not only bounced a check on me, but stiffed his local counsel and one of his ISPs."

    Spamming attorney is doing it because he's the unethical shit breaking the law.

    IRS - collecting on behalf of Congress who can never ever live within their means - even when they use Hollywood bookkeeping to "balance" the budget.

    The attorney is the shit here.

    Any problems with the IRS you'd have to blame Congress for.
