What’s the current law/penalty for spammers?
Like all of you, I get plenty of junk from non-reputable companies that I doubt will ever really get caught doing anything. However, there’s a pub in DC that put me on their email list after I attended a couple of their “all you can drink” events. After receiving several emails, I decided to click the little link to unsubscribe. I was assured that my address was removed and that I would no longer receive the emails. And I didn’t for many months. Then they started again. So I unsubscribed again. I got a couple more and I unsubscribed again. I believe I have unsubscribed 4 times now, 3 times at least. Now clearly they are in the wrong, can I have them prosecuted and receive any compensation for their harassment?
You can tell them to quit sending you mail or you will spread the word you found a couple short and curlies in the bottom of your last drink. That’ll shut em up…for a minute.
