Hey guys, Did some digging... looks like the host for http://outsourcingroom.com is http://hosting.ua/. Also, outsourcingroom looks to be owned by http://www.cbsystematics.com. The host for this company website is http://parking.ru. Hopefully this information can be of use to someone a little more legal-eagle than myself.

Re: [PHP] Warning: OutsourcingRoom.com
Nobody can actually do anything. This happen all the time. Sites like facebook or myspace send invitations to all your mail's contacts, but that's not the problem. What I can't understand is why do they do pre-signup just you for the easy of you. I have _created_ an account just to edit my personal data, that's nonsense!!!
