Shocker -- Porn-Spamming "Mom" Is A Liar, Too

from the can't-trust-anybody-these-days dept

A 33-year-old woman pleaded guilty to sending out millions of pieces of spam for porn sites this week, as part of a spam gang. The woman appears to have moved on from spam now, says Brian McWilliams, now running a site for moms who want to earn money from working at home -- and whose forums are filled with schemes on how to get rich by reading email and using auto-surf programs. She's now posted her sob story on her MommyJobs.com site, saying among other things how she loathes spammers and blames the incident on a former employer. She also details her "promise to God" that she'd get out of the porn business -- but McWilliams adds that she still runs a number of porn sites, including the lovingly titled Hardcore-skank-porn.com. What seems amazing is that the members of her forum don't seem to care about her past, or the fact that she lied about having a child to promote the work-from-home-mom site. But, when they're pushing all the various get-rich-quick schemes, perhaps it isn't that surprising. Little wonder, then, that scammers have no trouble finding targets.

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.

    Good thing she is a "Mom" and not a Mom.

    I was relieved to find that she didn't actually have a kid.

    Postal Spammers

    There is nothing legally wrong with working in or for the p0rn industry. The only legal complaint we the people have is that she was spamming people. The content of the spam is irrelevant.

    Advo, Inc. spams us all the time through our postal mail boxes. Why don't the execs at Advo ever get arrested. The do at least as much harm as email spammers. I can filter email spam or use multiple addresses. I can't do that with postal spam. Postal spam is actually worse. It wastes more of my time and irrates me more. I with law enforcement would go after postal spammers with the same ferocity as they do email spammers.

      Doh.

      Have just read her post 'fessing up on polluting Inboxes all over the world, and apparently she is "brave", "honest", and has "amazing courage".

      Poor lady... earning $9,000 a month sending out spam, and running porn sites in her spare time ("Hard core skank porn"?!? Give me strength!).

      Nurse! Fetch me a sponge! My heart's bleeding for this poor lady!

      I feel sorry for her that I'd even be tempted to send her some food parcels when she gets thrown in prison where she belongs. Spam fritters, spam omelette, spam pizza, spam sandwiches, spam quiche, spam pie, spam curry and Triple Deluxe spamburgers, nothing but spam, spam, spam morning, noon and night for the whole of her prison sentence.
