[NF] "Motley Fool" spam

Author: Pete Theisen

Posted: 2012-03-20 10:25:24   Link

Hi Everybody,

Spammers are nameless lowlifes for the most part, but "The Motley Fool"

seems to be a brand. Nevertheless, once they get your email address

(register to read an article) the solicitations never cease, no matter

how often you "Unsubscribe".

To whom do I report such a violator to? As far as I can see they are

supposed to unsubscribe you in ten days - but they have not.

Regards,

Pete

Even if you pay them they keep sending out IMPORTANT info.

I have received good insight into how to work with the market from

them. Paid for itself in a week of buying in.

But should they not honor a request to be removed? I have already

requested three times - just keep getting more.

There's an unsubscribe link here:

Is that what you used already?

Give it up and use a filter to put it into your delete folder.

If you "block" the mail and they get back a notice, they will stop it, otherwise put it into your spam folder and forget about it.

Two times I used the link at the bottom of the spam message. It takes

you to a website that asks for your email address (as if they don't have

it) then you put it in and it grinds away for a minute and then says you

have been removed from the database.

The latest time I did a reply to the sob who sent the email, asking him

if I had to get the law on him to unsubscribe or what.

You can do that? Well then what is the purpose of the [OT] police?

I usually try asking first if it is a "branded" company. I have so many

filters set now that I don't think I can set any more. Oh, maybe one more.

Hi Michael,

Haven't noticed that option in Thunderbird. Don't know if it has a block.

What is your provider?  I have yahoo mail that allows me to block it at the server and bounce it back to the sender.
