Acacia email spam
 
Ok im sure some of you got this but I just received an email to a old account of mine from Acacia with a pdf attached to it, nothing else in the email.. the pdf doesn?t even have my name on it its left blank so they wouldn?t have to create thousands of pdf's and use up their time. heh. this is gonig to far, this is spam, extortion, hell send to a domain that doesn?t even exist.. fucking fishing expedition..

someone submit them to spamhaus.

ACTG should stop this practise before some people get pissed and 20 mail servers starts sending their shits to remove lists.

Paul Markham 11-11-2003 02:49 AM

OK you clever guys.

List all the organisations we should forward this email to please.

Just give us the URLs or email addresses and lets nail them.

They are desperate?

Have we finally found the way to bleed them from the other side.

When you guys wake up in the morning phone your lawyers and sort out how we hit back at them.

Everyone who gets one of these submit them to spamcop.net and any other spam service you use for spamming, we can all put a stop to the spam mails at least if they are blocked by all teh services out there, fuck acacia and their god damn extortion asses!!!

LadyMischief 11-11-2003 08:57 AM

Gee.... think they're desperate to get those last-minute fish?

goBigtime 11-11-2003 08:58 AM

I'm pretty sure that the new California anti-spam law doesn't kick in till Jan 01, 2004.

SR 11-11-2003 09:05 AM

Would be nice if they'll get sued for spamming

arg 11-11-2003 09:06 AM

I got this message today too. It's so weak when they don't even know your name. I mean even the bigger-cock spammers seem to on a first name basis with me, but Acacia opens with "Dear Webmaster".

I don't see it as desperate.. i see it as the next step in their licensing execution strategy:

Send out 'information packets' starting in october 2002.

They started the first big wave in October 2003 with the mailing of the 'Final Notice'.

In November, they are now spamming webmaster's email with the 'Final Notice'.

Nov. 30th is the "amnesty date" for their "introductory rates".

I believe in December is when they will file lawsuits.... Berman has fumed in articles before that since adult webmasters didn't respond to their 'information packets' earlier in the year, that they had no choice but to take them to court.



Fight the Canned Ham!

It will only happen if we make it happen. Who wants to make it happen?

Anyone who settled with Acacia that is buddies with them, could have turned over a webmaster email list.... more than just the Matrix database could have been used.



Fight the Turn-over!

Gateway69 11-11-2003 12:48 PM

im sure by now most people have woke up to find an email from Acacia, it sure beats having them spend money to send out cert letters.. anyhow im not sure where they got my email address from.. ill look into who has it..

gota love it - they start spamming trying to get revenue and now their stock goes in the toilet - just wait till they get the spamming fines.... so much for acacia's millions in reserves, the spam fines will eat that up pretty quick with a public company!

I dont think that law comes into effect until 24th Nov But it is up to 1 million $ fine so it will only take 40 people sueing them to close them down ?

WiredGuy 11-11-2003 01:09 PM

They seem to be getting desperate in intimidating webmasters.
