Police say they have apprehended 27 year old Robert Salloway, probably the world's biggest spammers.  He is charged with ID theft, money laundering, among other serious crimes.

This probably won't reduce the amount of spam substantially, because he probably has apprentices ready to take over, but at least he's gone.

Well, good. False advertisement, among all of the other laws broken by spammers, should be punished to the full extent of the law. If we nailed a big one, we're making progress. Not much, but something is better than nothing, right?

I don't have the tenacity to do that.  As far as I know, they're not in jail, as I don't think they would be posting from jail.  I could be wrong, though. Tongue

We should make e-mail spam(actual spamming. Not the way the term has been abused/stretched to cover mass forum vposting) a felony.

Agreed - I got really pissed at these people after our family went through identity theft crap.
