Woke up this morning and found 10 spam emails to get me to sign up.

Great site they have there.

The number one rule that will govern you account's existence is "NO SPAM". To keep it simple, spamming is sending unsolicited email to a person that did not request to be contacted in the first place.
Okay, I'm seriously pissed off. Someone find out some abuse email addresses for their upstream providers. I'm out to get these hypocrits, big time.

ahh yes i got the same $99 special offer :laugh: already reported to spamcop. not much more you can do I mean its really not worth reporting to there upstream unless you can get a decent amount of people I dont think, atleast it has not worked for me yet to get any action taken. Another good way I have found to get back is sign them up for a couple of those penis enlargment lists to there support@ email I know it's kinda childish but it makes me feel better :D
You have to be pretty dumb to come to somewhere like WHT to harbor your email addresses as a high majority of us are hosts.

Well, I just reported them to:
abuse@ev1.net
abuse@cogentco.com
abuse@sprint.com
abuse@uunet.com
I don't believe it's a waste of time. One of these providers should contact them or they are all hypocrits.

I think they should change the name to LAZYHost

What can you do? Nothing really I receive 5-10 a day from emailpromo advertising bulk email and some other hosting. Reporting them does nothing. (well not yet anyway)

It's our duty to report them. If everyone did, they would have to stop.

Yes, but that's the point not many do. They would rather hit delete than report them. What's the point they will just move to somewhere else anyway.

Looks like Laser Host are at RackShack though and if enough people complain, they should shut them down or at least warn them not to do it.
I generally don't report spam - who has the time? But when a host spams it's a different matter.
