Profiting By Suing Spammers
from the oooh,-what-a-good-idea dept
Pissed off at spammers? Looking for work because your dot com laid you off? Here's a great way to make a little money and make the world a better place: sue some spammers. Apparently a few people are doing it and making some money off of it. A lot of times the spammers settle out of court. One guy even set up a paypal account to streamline the process of getting money from spammers. This sounds like fun...Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
