    Watch out for this one

    http://www.searchenginedomus.com

    Be watching for this one. He did not send spam FROM our servers but did send spam promoting a site hosted by us selling 5,000,000 email addresses..

    He is toast from our servers so he will be on the hunt shortly for a new host I am sure.



    Be safe it is crazy out there.

    We cancelled this one and less than an hour later he was set up and running on a new host.. I like the speed DNS updates but gosh this sure makes it easy for these guys.


    I contacted the new host to let them know that he was a spammer, do you guys think this is the right thing to do?

    Definately the right thing to do. Spammers (and scammers) should be given as hard a time as possible. I'm sure that if the roles were reversed, you wouldn't mind a heads up from another host - after all, you would still be free to make your own mind up as to whether to keep him.

    thanks for the feedback.. yes I would like someone to tell me if they came this way.. I talked to the new host live chat so I guess it is in the new hosts hands now.



    Thanks

    I wish all hosts would do what you did. That was the right thing to do.

    I wish all hosts would give heads up to a spammers next host. This could definately help eliminate spammers.
