So, this person legally hasn't done anything wrong, but I still get curious......I think i'll find a little more out!

 

I guess this thread should be viewed by an admin soon.

And maybe you should remove the email of the guy who sent you this from your post, as there will be many spammers who would like to contact him

 

I received this email too...

 

Ahe, I just got a red rep for explaining what happened. Nice.

 

Hey Boris

I'd never purchase a spam list... sheesh..

ive got my own lists ive put a lot of time and effort into creating and maintaining.

I posted this so the DG people know you may be on a spam list etc..

I left the email address intact so people can email this spammer letting him know what they think etc.
