I'm currently having my domain name spoofed by spamming vermin. As a result, I get the occasional disgruntled person who thinks I sent the original SPAM. Usually I try to explain, but on this occasion, with this arsehole, I wasted my breath. In my last communication to him I deliberately spoofed his email address as the reply address and I never heard back from him so he's probably still sending emails to himself saying "fuck you".


You don't get it do you? I didn't send you the original unsolicited advertisement, I'm trying to help you!

If you believe reply addresses are also the address the mail comes from then in theory you just sent this email to yourself (check out the reply address which I set up to prove the point).

If I were a spammer, why would I bother to enter into a dialogue to try to explain? And why would I sign off with my real name?

Then I simply change my email address again, and again, fuck you for the unsolicited advertisement
