Apparently someone is collecting e-mail addresses from this group and sending a limited number of spam messages promoting a Cisco certification product. Normally we would arrange a boycott against their products. In the past, boycotts have been very sucessful. Both cases in the past where this happened we were able to put the company out of business. One was a very established company .. but being labeled a spammer in this industry is the kiss of death. Thanks to the outrage of the group, our little boycott was amazingly sucessful!
In this case, the perpetrater is someone little known. By arranging a boycott against this person, they would probably gain market share :-). So for now, if you do happen to receive an e-mail advertising a product on homestead.com, please please complain to: http://www.homestead.com/PersonalSplash.ffhtml?TARGET=%2f%7esite%2fCompanyIn fo%2fCompanyInfo%2effhtml My guess is homestead will just kill their account. If you ever suspect a company is obtaining e-mails from this list and using it to send UBE, please notifiy me immediately. Since employees of their upstream provider are probably on this list, we have options not available other places :-). Thanks!
