next time you spam an inbox, think about what you are doing.
 

as part of AOL's efforts to sue spammers, one such defendant who lost his case had to give up his prized posession, his 2002 porsche, its AOL's new drive to seize computers and destroy them but now it seems they will even go after the assets of those it sues.......

the car is currently a prize on sweepstakes run by AOL for US residents only.

Blimey, AOL doing something right for a change. *Falls off chair*

Glad to hear it though. Lets hope some of the spammers get the message. Apparently they can be sentenced to years in prison now :)

I must say that when i was with AOL i had no spam whatsoever.

They protect their own customers fairly well I think and send it out everywhere else! I would say 60% of the spam I get comes via AOL

Wouldn't it be nice if NTL adopted this tactic, though? I'd like to see this, and I wouldn't mind the chance of winning a Porsche!
