Report hosts that spam
I thought it would be a good idea to have a thread where people can report hosts that use spam to solicit business. So people who come to WHT looking for a good host can stay clear of spammers!
Here is one that has been spamming me this week:
Unlimited Web Site Hosting
Unlimited web space for html, asp, php, access, mssql, mysql, images on Xeon 3.06 ghz servers,
large data transfer (bandwidth)
free web site control panels (cpanel and Hosting Controller )
free installation for Invisonboard, Phpbb, Phpnuke, Oscommerce etc. and other web softwares
and Reseller packages,
Starter fee $1.66 per month
Free Setup
24/7 technical email support, phone support
5 days trial account available
for details please visit our web site www.atlasholding.net
for Unsubscribe : please send blank email to support@atlasholding.net
please Do NOT repley this email.
Best Regards

It's probably best if you don't post their URL here.
You are only helping them spread their word.

Only thing I did notice, is when a site that hosts movies and such, spammed me, I reported them, then got 173 spams of "F*ck You, you want spam, then feel it" - all thru an anon email portal. Apparently the host passed on my email to the domain, and the admin got mad at me. Just another reason to keep reporting the kiddies.
FYI you might want to block
Return-Path: <alexa@server1.nettoolz.net>
Received: from server1.nettoolz.net (uk1.webhosting.uk.com [147.202.36.70])
on your mail servers, as its a anon email sending client on their page.Happily hosting @ Dathorn.com (Since 3/2003), Ispeeds.net (Since 2004), & Quadspeedi.net (Since 7/2005)!

Ditto that, started last sunday nite, reporting each piece of spam that hits my email address, and I've noticed a huge drop in spam since then.

Reporting them to spamcop helps but WHT is the #1 hosting board so why not expose them here as well amongst the thousands of visitors who come here looking for a host. They can be exposed here while spamcop does their thing. Best of both worlds.
