I don't think so.. I haven't received anything from them personally. If they
were harvesting addresses, my guess would be that there would be more traffic
and/or complaints. The only exposure that I have had to them is here on the
list. With that being said, I am *highly* amused when one does come through.
The whole notion of an 'elite' is questionable at best (unless they are in
the business of proving their members as such) and affixing the letters BMC
on the front is just icing on the cake unless they are sactioned. Heh. IMNSHO
- they could have used the name 'remedy monkeys/guys/cyborgs/people/whatever'
and got the same effect. Remind me not to laugh when someone claims to be an
'elite' like their poop don't stink.

Basically, I opted out before, but I started getting it again. I'm
assuming they pull email addresses from the ARS List whether we signed up or
not, and even if we opt out, when they harvest the email addresses here
again, it apparently overwrites the opt out. That is where the violation
takes place, in my opinion. Obviously, lawyers and such would be required to
determine that for sure in court. However, it seems obvious to me that they
are violating the opt out portion of the law.

Just out of curiosity, how are they violating the CAN-SPAM Act?

Same here. I wonder if they know that they are violating the CAN-SPAM
Act. Perhaps we should find out who is behind it, as they can be fined
$11,000 for each individual email they send out.

Is anyone else receiving weekly unsolicited email updates from BMC
elite? I ignored their initial invitation but continue to get these
mailings. I don't want to opt out and alert them that there is a human
associated with this address. Dore anyone know if the site is legit and will
actually remove me from their mailing list? Their marketing tactics seem
pretty unprofessional so maybe just adding them to a junk mail filter is more
appropriate...
