I've been getting an average of 3 emails a day from Three Day Signs so I thought I'd give them something in return. I subscribed them to every Canadian pharmacy dealer I could find. I also forwarded all my spam to them. I feel much better now that I've been able to "give something back" to them. Feel free to share the love with them for yourself.

Spam filters work wonders.

LOL Ricky...I have been getting the same crap from them as well. Guess they didn't read that I retired 2 years ago and don't need their crap.

Even if I was still in business, I wouldn't use them, based solely on their spam e-mail practices.

Never thought about forwarding all my spam to them!!! Great idea!!! "Paying it forward"

I've gotten even more crap from signs of korea. Thanks for the suggestions!

As much as I like that idea, please think twice.

About a week or 2 ago, I read in the local paper where someone was charged with harassment for doing similar stuff.

Your best solution is to report the spammer to his ISP. It's normally simple, taking a few moments of time. If enough report him, they will shut the site down.

I'll see if I can find the article and post a link.

Havin' fun,

Checkers

Glenn this isn't my first day on the computer. Thanks Susan [Smile] Checkers, I had already emailed them asking them to remove me from their list. If they want to make an issue out of it then let them; I've got my guns loaded (metaphorically speaking)

Just a follow-up..I sent a couple of e-mails to both the 3 Day sign guys and the outfit they use to send the spam..BINGO!!! No more spam here..I did use some threatening language and some of the words started with "F" too.

So far..so good.

Next target is "Bigdcdcs"... I'll report back in a day or two

Dave, I can assume it was something like this then?

Fine friends, feel free to forgo frequently filling my spam filter with filth.
