wma189
I have a had a great deal of people reaching this site having followed a search for wma189. The reason they are landing here is that I have a page of e-mail addresses that have spammed me and this has been indexed by the search engines.
I can only assume from the amount of visitors that lots of people are getting fed up with getting unsolicited e-mail from wma189.com, owned incidentally by Arlene Allan of Bridgeport, Connecticut, USA - but no web site.
What amazes me is that if you put wma189 into Google the only result is this site.
Fortunately there are laws surfacing to reduce the amount of spam on the internet, reports say that over 40% of all internet traffic is span e-mail. Virginian laws are about to get tougher and as they are the access point for AOL and other services this should cut down a lot of the spam. But where will it all go - my guess is mobile phones as I am starting to get unsolicited calls and sms text messages now - and that's even more of a pain...
