This is how to deal with spammers in general.  First, TRACERT from a command
line:

C:\>tracert excelfutures.com
Tracing route to excelfutures.com [66.113.94.232]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

Trace complete.


"ibsinc.com" is the last readable address before the spammers address.  Pull
out your web browser and go to www.ibsinc.com.  Bingo!  It's a web hoster.
Now forward the spam to abuse@xxxxxxxxxx and tell them you have tried
repeatedly to stop receiving mail from them.  If enough people complain,
ibsinc will terminate their account.

Is anyone else being plagued by spam from this company?

They supposedly come from mwagg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx which doesn't seem to
be a legit address and the email contact addresses given on their web
site - info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - doesn't work and you can't unsubscribe!

How on earth can this company think it's going to attract business. Are
there really that many dumbos in the world!

Anyone know how to stop this spam? MailWasher lets them all through!
