Don't laugh, stuff like this real happens at state and federal prisons. Scott Richter needs to board with Bubba.
Who's laughing? Everytime the little voice in my head tells me to consider cheating on my income taxes, I think of Bubba and decide, "nope".  | |

If everyone went that human right website and read what takes place in prisons then I would think it would deter many people from breaking the law.
After reading some of the accounts of what actual happens, I sure don't want to room with Bubba in the near future. -- Dslreports.com Forum No-Spin zone starts here. »www.antihotmail.com spammers_are_scumbags@antihotmail.com | |

| I have text messaging? I was getting them and I had no idea how to send them.. heck I had no idea what mine was..
I had it shut off since they could not filter them. Also it was free for me to have the text messaging so there was no discount... 
Verizion also charges .05 per message...for 4,500,000 that is $225,000.00 that they charged to customers.... that a pretty penny. -- Need a Web Developer? | |

The charge is $0.02/incoming message for all the Verizon Wireless rate plans I am familiar with. Or you can buy bundles of so many hundred per month. | |

ok.... $90,000.00 not so big for Verizon... but those do add up. -- Need a Web Developer? | |

| I don't have Verizon, but can AT&T be sued?
3 times now they've sent me unsolicited advertisements via text messaging. Charged me .10 per message as well as a minute each in air time. Quite a profit while advertising their business.  -- Visualize Whirled Peas | |

You can send these messages from any computer in world that has the capability to send e-mail. Every phone that has SMS has an e-mail address usually in the form of cell phone number @ cell phone company domain.
Limit the message to about 140 character or less and it goes right to the cell phone without any interaction at all by the cell phone company! | |

| Interesting reading. Davis Wolfgang Hawke |
There's an interesting tidbit of information about Jacob Brown (covered in this article): rumour has it he works for a spamming company out of Rhode Island called "The Phoenix Company". Nothing surprising there...
...except when you read that the individual who owns the company is a neo-nazi by the name of Davis Wolfgang Hawke. The same individual has run ""companies"" by the names of "Quiksilver Enterprises" and "Amazing Internet Products".
I always love posting pictures of these folks, because, well, I think it's entertaining to put a face with a name. I'm still looking for photos of Jacob Brown... -- Making life hard for others since 1977. | |

| Why not sooner? Wouldn't they need to track down the spam or was he leaving an easy paper trail to be found. Verizon would not sue him till they had so much proof he has no chance to get away with it. What will be interesting is all the details involved in the investigation. | |

| Despicible Throw the book at them! They should be made to pay for the cost of every message sent and received, with interest, as well as the cost of Verizon's efforts to block them and track them down. Oh yeah, let's not forget all court costs, too. I hope they lose everything! -- Please deposit any pennies for my thoughts in my tool points.
