[history]
West Bloomfield bulk e-mailer Alan Ralsky, who just may be the world's biggest sender of Internet spam, is getting a taste of his own medicine.
Ever since I wrote a story on him a couple of weeks ago (www.freep.com/money/tech/mwend22_20021122.htm), he says he's been inundated with ads, catalogs and brochures delivered by the U.S. Postal Service to his brand-new $740,000 home.

after spam haters posted his address, even an aerial view of his neighborhood. This is exactly what I was hoping would happen when I read the original article. It warms my heart.

I'm so killed. He's wading house deep in spam. Hoist on his own petard, so to speak. For justice its delicious and the judgment is simply priceless.

Maybe he can put up his posh residence for sale and move to Nome Alaska. I hear the views of the Aurora Borealis at this time of the year from that latitude are awesome.

They've signed me up for every advertising campaign and mailing list there is," he told me. "These people are out of their minds. They're harassing me." BWAHAHAHAHA!!

This spam queen also got a taste of her own medicine. She was whining about FReepers giving it to her, as well as many others across the country:

Now if we can only do the same thing to Daschle, Bill & Hil, and McCain. |
Only instead of ads, catalogs and brochures...pictures of Dubya, Ronald Reagan and Rush Limbaugh.

It makes me think of what could be done for the anti-gun organizations. If they have toll-free telephone lines, everyone could call them with endless numbers of questions. If they send out postage-paid envelopes, everyone could put some newspaper clippings in the envelope and mail it back.
This could also work with the Democrat Nazi Committee, and other leftist organizations. Someone already suggested doing it to the Canadian Gun Registration ministry. It would certainly drive up their expenses and maybe help to bankrupt them.

I remember the original article. What I found really funny is that it seemed as if the author went out of his way, after promising not to divulge an exact address, to provide as many clues as humanly possible to the location of the house, including physical description of the property - corner lot, circular driveway. HA! This is priceless.
