ohhhhhh, I had a nice piece of advertisement email, I didnt like it so
instead of responding to the (prolly a spoof) email address listed as
reply-to I found their homepage, sent an email to their sponsor and root
at their system, this is the email and reply[1] I got afterwards, proves
once more that it helps to be polite and to take the side of the
sysadmin =]

[1] If you consider this useful information LART me...

I am truly sorry for any inconvenience. I had no idea that the list I
purchased contained names of people who are truly not interested in
receiving income generating possibilities. YOUR NAME HAS BEEN REMOVED AS
WE
SPEAK! All leads in this list, had supposedly responded to home
business/
network marketing, and were awaiting information regarding
opportunities.
Once again, I am truly sorry!
