I have recently received UNSOLICITED and UNWANTED junk e-mail from an
individual who appears to be using your site. A copy of that mail is
attached herewith. Junk Mail is now regarded as the same as unwanted
and unsolicited junk faxes and telemarketing calls - all of which are
now ILLEGAL under US federal law:
By US Code Title 47, Sec.227(a)(2)(B), a computer/modem/printer
meets the definition of a telephone fax machine. By Sec.227(b)
(1)(C), it is unlawful to send any unsolicited advertisement to
such equipment, punishable by action to recover actual monetary
loss, or $500, whichever is greater, for EACH violation.
Please ensure this is stopped NOW. You have been put on notice. If you
confirm to me promptly that effective action has been taken against those
persons responsible, I will not take the matter further on this occasion.
If you do not provide me with such confirmation in a timely manner, or if
ANY further UNSOLICITED or UNWANTED junk mail should be received from your
site, I will instruct my attorney to issue a writ WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE,
and the matter will then be pursued under federal law. I will separately
notify your upstream providers as they may also be liable for violations
originating from your site.
