UBE or Unsolicited Bulk Email SPAM is annoying! Yet stupid companies still rely on it. They buy emails or worse use techniques to "guess" your email. For example they will take your first and last name and create variations of it to find a valid email address, then use that to send you UBE SPAM! Take this:
As you can clearly see AMAZON sent me this SPAM! How do I know? Well as I said I would have signed up to amazon with amazon@mywebsite NOT glenn.crystal (my name)! I NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER give that out as my email! So they took information they STOLE or BOUGHT about me and compiled a list of possible email addresses that as I stated earlier became valid. THEY UNSOLICITED BULK EMAIL SPAMmed me!
Now the funny thing is in America there is a LAW called the CAN SPAM ACT of 2003 which CLEARLY states you as a corporation or business CAN NOT UBE SPAM people! They are in violation of the law! #BoycottAmazon! Fuck amazon! I already boycott them now I have even more reason and proof to do so!
FUCK YOU AMAZON! YOU will NOT get my business and now you are being reported for VIOLATIONS of the CAN SPAM ACT of 2003!
In case you want to learn more:
harvesting email addresses or generating them through a dictionary attack (the practice of sending email to addresses made up of random letters and numbers in the hope of reaching valid ones), and
So EXACTLY what I just explained above IS WHAT AMAZON did! How can I prove this? Well as I said I WOULD NEVER use my full name with a period to register for any website. I would use THEIRBUSINESSNAME@MYWEBSITE NOT my name! That is how I know who sells my information, who harvested my data, and who is a fraud! And amazon did that! Proof is in the picture/email!
Q. What are the penalties for violating the CAN-SPAM Act?
A. Each separate email in violation of the law is subject to penalties of up to $41,484
WOW so they could be fined up to $41,484 for EVERY single UBE SPAM email they sent out! Better start reporting these morons! Join me in my boycott and let me know below how you feel!
