I’ve been getting a bunch of spam at work that asks me to click through to one or another site at geocities uk. I know if it were the US geocities, I would send them an e-mail complaining about it . Does the UK have anti-spam laws? Will Geocities close an account that’s generating, or having someone else generate, spam?
Send them email anyway. Include copies of the spam you’re getting, and make sure the copies you send have the full headers.
I don’t know whether the UK has anti-spam legislation, but Geocities is reputable and I’m reasonably sure that using their site as a base for a spamming operation is a violation of their TOS.
Here’s a link that explains how to report such abuse.
Thnks. The spam wasn’t coming from a geocities site, it was just trying to get me to visit a site there. I’ll fire off my complaint. It can’t hurt.
European Spam laws, every bit as ruthless and effective as the US equivalent. :rolleyes:
