As a system administrator, I once called one of those numbers
to nicely ask that they pass on to the spammers that we are Washington
residents and that we request that they not spam us any more. A nice lady
answered the phone saying someting or another answering service. I asked
her if I could ask a question and she absolutely flipped! Seems that she
was getting tired of being yelled at. Took me 5 minutes to talk her down.
I felt like I was talking someone off the edge of the side of a building.
Moral: If you call these people, please understand that they are being
yelled at for hours on end. Do try to be nice, you'll get much further!!
Also, they have to take your e-mail address down and place it on their
"don't spam list". Instead of giving them your actual e-mail address, tell
them you are an admin for your domain and that you request they no longer
e-mail to that domain. They can't confirm any one e-mail address that way
and it provides a bit of protection for the rest... blah blah blah take it
as you will...
