anybody know if paypal actualy endorses this crap ? cos thats what the email purports ! personally given the way it works it`s kinda like a pyramid/refferal scheme.

i`m planning on hunting this fella down like the mangy dog he is, i`m just f***ing sick of the spam so i reckon it`s time to show at least a couple of these spammers the consequences of sending unsolicited crap, especialy since he`s targeting people that have traded with him on ebay etc, it`s like putting your foot in the door,,, grrrrr

so waddaya reckon, am i overreacting or should we teach this cretin a lesson & spam him into next year :D

his email addy is namzo[at]ku.oc.m25zoahc

feel free to spam him back with my blessing, when i get some time tomorrow i`m gonna sign him up for free ipods, mobile phones, penis enlargment, herbal viagra, gay dating sites & around 200 "free" weekly email newsletters & of course that old chestnut, "joke of the day" :D

if anyone thinks i`m out of order you`ve got till tomorrow to talk me out of it, on the other hand if you also hate all the s*** mail that arrives in your inbox, post some more ideas or even send them directly to the email addy above :D

People are SO F***ING LAZY nowadays. I remember when cretins like namzo[at]ku.oc.m25zoahc used to spam Usenet with pyramid schemes and people actually had to GET OFF THEIR ARSES to chuck away their money through the POST.

When I got one of these I reported the guy to abuse@ for Paypal and his ISP, probably they did f*** all, but I can dream that he got his account closed... :D

etc etc as first post,


my initial reply.

f*** off you spamming twat or i will report you to ebay paypal & your isp for sending unsolicited emails, specifically spamming pyramid schemes.


twat.


1st response from spammer

No need to be rude.
If you`d taken the time to read the information Paypal have found nothing
wrong the scheme.
I now know of at least 6 people that have received over £500 so far, so
who`s the twat now!!
Go on and report me to ebay. One less customer for your business.
Prick


my second response to spamming twat=

listen you spamming little twat, if you want to peddle your s***ty little pyramid scheme around thats fine, just don`t spam people, if you wanna take it
further i`ll not only report you for sending unsolicited emails i`ll also drag both you & your internet addy all over the internet & launch a dos attack
against your ip address so huge you will get denial of service 403 messages for months. if you wanna be a prick headed spammer thats your prerogative,
but if you wanna f*** around i`ll make your life a f***ing misery. in fact f*** it, i`m bored, so i reckon i`ll do it anyway.


prick.


short fuse ? moi !!!!!!! 8) this bitch is gonna burn.........
