Spam the mail spammers

[aznaphrodite]

I keep getting spam e-mail from the same group and they're spamming me to spam other people!!!

Anyway, I found a form on their web site so we can spam them back. I just cut and pasted the text from the spam they sent me and sent it back through their questions form.

Please feel free to do the same. I hate spammers!

Also, feel free to make fake orders too:

I've already reported the spam to Earthlink.net, which its originally from, according to the full headers.

Any other ideas on how to fight back at spammers?

They even have customer service e-mail address.

you should have copied the packet, then tell your computer to send the packet in an infinite loop.

yeah, but then what would I do for the rest of the day

http://spamcop.net/ is a great service. Takes the dirty work out of sifting through headers, then will automatically e-mail the abuse@ accounts of the originating ISPs. I've had several admins write me back thanking me for tracking down the bastids and telling me they remove the accounts

http://www.spamspade.org is a great tool too. Especially useful for tracking down the jackasses that are scanning your system and sending off firewall alerts.

If you have your e-mail address on any web site, obfuscate it (look at the source for the news page to see what my ironchef e-mail address looks like obfuscated). http://www.hivelogic.com/safeaddress.php has a great tool that will not only obfuscate addresses, but will also use a little javascript function to output it. This makes it invisible to many harvesters.

and if you personally know a spammer, there's only one thing that's appropriate:

/me kicks the spammer in the jimmy
