The Nation's worst spammer

[sammie5]

At work we used to get several hundred a day. A few times we received thousands of the same message - 2300 one time, 1600 the next. And we found that someone (I hope it was this guy, and this won't happen again) hacked our email address on our domain, and was using our address as the "person" who originated the email. So if you got that set of spam, it would look like it came from us.

The thing about these spammers is that they send the same message over and over again. No, I don't want to look at it, I didn't want to the first time, I never want to. And in addition to viagra, and online pharmacies, we get lots of spam for, how should I put it, performance enhancing drugs. Its really really offensive, and I don't offend easily. I'm glad they got this guy.

Hey...... I only have 6 junk mails in my hotmail box today instead of 30..

I haven't recieved ANY junk mails in my hotmail email today. I usually get anywhere from 30 to 60 a day. My regular email is about the same, but my hotmail is almost getting no action. At first I was wondering what was wrong with Hotmail. Now I think this might be the answer.

Same here, no spam in the mail today. And we usually have at least 10 during the business day. The test will be tomorrow afternoon, our usual quota would be 20 - 30 overnight, all asking if we would like larger [certain parts of the anatomy].

This mas must have been very very busy with his "work"

Now, can we get rid of the popups, too? I downloaded a pop blocker but, it didn't work and caused other problems with my computer so, I dumped it.

Google offers a popup blocker ... It does a prettty good job, imo.

Wow. Good job. Although I'm still getting on average 90 spammings in my mail box each day

Its the porn I cant cope with!!!!!!! I cant see one bloke being responsible for all the stuff I get. I have not looked at my mail for 3 days and had 82 e mails - I just delete them and have changed my e mail but go back to check every so often. Maybe it is not classed as spam (where did that word come from - is it true it has a basis in Monty Python?)
