$500k fine for using fake romantic emails to lure customers

http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/htm...ebfine06m.html

A Seattle Internet advertising company has agreed to pay a $500,000 fine after violating a promise not to use fake romantic e-mails to lure customers to sites where they have to pay a subscriptions for other services.

----------------


I wonder how many of the adult dating sites are going to need to watch out for this.....
