Re: COMPOST HELP/addr for "Re: Hi, I'm looking for a few good men and women"




Is there an FAQ for dealing with spam?

For example, how do you find the address for the system
administrator or ISP, to send a complaint?

Is it better to e-mail or call the ISP?

What I know is...

- If the spammer is on AOL, call their 800 number, and 
AOL's "Terms Of Service" (pronounced "toss") department
will quickly and happily toss the offending subscriber.

- If it's a chain letter scheme, print out a copy and
send it to your local post office inspector.

- If the person claims "I made $23,849 from this! Honest!",
print out a copy and send it to the IRS, suggesting they
check if the spammer declared the $23,849 on their taxes.
