I was polite and the site owner, in essence, said I was lying. "We don't sign up individuals. You signed up or one of your "friends" signed you up. We don't send out spam." Yes, "friends" was in quote marks. I'm fairly sure, because the email address used was not one I normally give out, that this company got my address from a trade show I attended two years ago. I did not ask to receive email from the company. By definition, this is legally spam. The fact that they are mining two-year-old lists is also pretty desperate. Exactly, Karl.

Because they are probably pissing other people off too. If they would realize that you are helping them out, they would be grateful. The refuse to see the obvious and it will hurt them in the long run. I wish people would just relax and listen. Because they are probably pissing other people off too.
