These email spammers with fake gmail addresses are clearly breaking the law and I personally believe that they should be found and jailed. The last time I looked at my inbox I found more than 700 emails from these people who do not have real names, company websites or company emails. Even before I was able to write this sentence I received yet another email from a person signed as Steve Doody. As the industry, can we police our own criminal elements such as this example? If not, our next stop will be what Wall Street is going through now. This is completely out of control and worse than the most dangerous Nigerian internet scams once we went through, and far worse than any penis enlargement scam we were bombarded with when email was newly born. I am personally keeping a tally on this activirty and filling every email I receive with FBI's internet crimes unit.
