I'd like to see the actual spam. For example, I just got an ordinary
spam... with a phone number in Utah to call. I'm seriously considering
doing something I've been thinking of for a while: finding out who the
number belongs to, and suing *them* under the CAN-SPAM act. I mean, the
spammers are being paid to send out that crap, and I bet a *lot* of it is
for people in the US scamming for $$$.
I could hope that the spam being sent under the bounced notices is the same.
