I also noticed their IP is on the SPAM list with Whois and CIDR reports.
When I did an IP search, I found spoofed PayPal Scam sites that were spoofed through German IPs.
Spammers were my old enemy. I've been exposing them for a good while.
Spammers have no honor whatsoever. I'm not surprised.

Hmmm...I sent you a FR ping or FR mail something like ON THE NET. Should be one German related link. Don't know if there is any connection or not except that it is German-related.
