I have been looking at these too. They've been around for about 4 months
and can just as easily be spotted for their crap whois records
whois promosinternational.com
Name Server: DNS1.NAME-SERVICES.COM
Creation Date: 14-oct-2007
william bromage ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (always @gmail)

These emails never get past the greylisting/host sanity however I've
been thinking about taking all their information and adding to a

The domains are already listed in the Day Old Bread dns list .. most of
the time.
