A must read....
One of my colleagues stumbled across this.... http://www.aeaweb.org/articles.php?doi=10.1257/jep.26.3.87 More importantly the PDF really is a well written position on SPAM and the disgusting effect its having on our businesses and society. http://pubs.aeaweb.org/doi/pdfplus/10.1257/jep.26.3.87
SPAM is hitting a nerve - Rajeev Kumar
After a few surfers saw Rajeev's SPAM which of course is unsolicited email they took the time to vent their frustration. Thank you for your comments!
In his defense Rajeev took the time to defend his SPAM practices. See this link http://davidbarnes.platforminteractive.com.au/2012/05/rajeev-doesnt-understand-can-spam-act.html
I was quite happy to publish Rajeev's comment because it just shows he does not understand the word 'unsolicited'. Which pretty much means that 'I never asked for it'. That is covered in the first section of a break down on the http://business.ftc.gov/documents/common-sense-look-can-spam web site. See below
Say “spam,” and what comes to mind? For many people, it’s the unsolicited email that clutters their inboxes with offers of fast money, easy weight loss, and so-called personal enhancements. However, since Congress passed the CAN-SPAM Act, the landscape has been changing. The law covers virtually all email with the primary purpose of advertising or promoting a commercial product or service – even if it’s not sent in bulk. Although you’ll want to review your company’s email policies with your attorney, the requirements of CAN-SPAM simply enact into law the consumer-oriented policies that top marketers have been following all along.
Now Rajeev, we have never met and in fact you have farmed my email from somewhere! You sent me an UNSOLICITED email advertising your services.
What's worse Rajeev is that I live in Australia and the SPAM ACT definitely legislates against your behaviour. Long and the short of it try advertising properly and see how you go..... elance.com freelance.com or whatever. But leave people alone.

A Common Sense Look At CAN-SPAM
By Lesley FairSay “spam,” and what comes to mind? For many people, it’s the unsolicited email that clutters their inboxes with offers of fast money, easy weight loss, and so-called personal enhancements. However, since Congress passed the CAN-SPAM Act, the landscape has been changing. The law covers virtually all email with the primary purpose of advertising or promoting a commercial product or service – even if it’s not sent in bulk. Although you’ll want to review your company’s email policies with your attorney, the requirements of CAN-SPAM simply enact into law the consumer-oriented policies that top marketers have been following all along.

Rajeev Doesn't understand the Can-SPAM act - Rajeev Kumar
I hope Rajeev's understanding of SEO is better than his understanding of the CAN-SPAM Act.

Publishing SPAM emails
Given the amount of effort and cost that we put into our email marketing software to ensure our clients adhere to ANTI SPAM legislation I am still bewildered at the amount of email that we get from organisations that are legitimately trying to solicit business.
This is how bad is is getting. As an organisation we changed the extensions on our email addresses to prevent the generic email address SPAM. Within 6 months the SPAM has started.
Here is the conspiracy. It has been 3-4 months after the new email addresses were implemented and we started to use them to register services, software and purchases that we have started to receive SPAM.
Could it be that the web developers managing these sites have passed on our details? Perhaps the development has been outsourced and the outsourced partners are collating the information for their own purposes.
None of this I can be absolutely sure . one thing for sure though is that from here on in I am going to do the following:

- I will try and publish all SPAM that we receive.
- If the sender of the SPAM can show that we requested the marketing message then I will take it down and apologise.

ACMA has been very useful .... but they are hamstrung by legislation and tools!
Below is a very out of date BLOG... a lot has happened in the last 9 months, much of it good but very very hard work.
I'll be back in 2012 with a new perspective, fresh eyes on things and perhaps a little more commentary around the current state of affairs in security,
+++++++++++
I had a conversation with ACMA today re: All of my SPAM complaints and I must say they were very helpful.Whilst we agreed that the "Spoof" emails were highly annoying due to the pain in trying to auto-junk them using a rule in my email client they we powerless to do anything about the spoof employment scam emails.
One thing that was good to know is that the origin of most of these emails is in Russia. Whilst the relays are often sent through unsuspecting mail servers, generally the content was created and formed in Russia. Interestingly I have had many Chinese spoof emails since this investigation started.
So what can be done on your desktop? Well not much really. Unless you buy one of the many SPAM protection software applications that are available and run your mail through them before you get the mail yourself you are some what at the mercy of this illegal and highly annoying practice. Whilst software on your desktop is useful, you are often at the ISP's whim as to what they allow and that they don't allow. Sure there are settings that allow you to create your own block list, but really there could be a better and more open approach.
I have deleted my next few paragraphs due to a change in circumstances which I am not at liberty to talk about. Needless to say when I can, I will.
Thanks again to ACMA for their tireless efforts.
