Why would you? They don't even have a secured signup form.

With a big topic as SPAM I seriously doubt it.

Well I wouldn't anyway, but some people aren't as smart as some ;) and sprintserve, I think we all know that people don't even read the title of the thread. An example of that is in the Request forum, {title} Free host needed - xyzhost replies "I can offer all that for $10 a month" :eek:

I get spam from other hosts all the time.

It's rediculous that they don't even target their emails better.

If you're going to waste your time, and risk getting your account shut down, at least send the spam to people who are more likely to buy.
