Bounces can be more annoying than regular spam

Comments

This is akin to the pirating on the high seas. Any harm they can do, the do with absolute glee. It doesn't matter if they profit from it, only that they have managed to defeat defenses and cause misery. I believe in prison terms for malicious internet activity. Long prison terms. I believe in international diplomatic efforts to inact accountability to countries that harbor such acts.

Hi Mr. Yan, see they are hitting you with spam again.

Sorry to hear this, again!

I quess, the only thing I'm sure about is you are much smarter then the spammers.

While, I don't wish [anyone] ill... I bet you will beat them at their own stupid game.

Fyi: Good news came on Friday; sadly, it may be lost in your thousands of spams. Wish you a great weekend!

Your reader JudgeBob is correct, a long prision term would shutdown their zeal. Are there international laws regarding this nasty spam business?

Simply:

Thanks for keeping me posted. I hope this does not happen to me.
As far as I know, spam is governed the same way most things are: independent national laws. I’ve looked into it with the police here regarding identity theft as a basic enquiry and they cannot act unless the thief is domestic. I do agree with both you, Judge Bob and you, Bill.
The filters work quite well but I hate wasting time downloading the messages. I know someone suggested Gmail which was very kind of him; however, I wonder if Gmail filters based on an offending IP appearing in the body of the message. This is not as widespread a problem as regular spam, so it may not be as well guarded against.
I hope it doesn’t either, Timothy. It is pretty annoying, when there a few dozen spammers colluding. Fortunately, the numbers were way down this morning, and I am not going out to town or the ’burbs visiting friends all day today and coming back to hundreds each time.
