[atlarge-discuss] intox but for what purpose?



Mrs Adria J Wilson was called by someone who told her a strange story she reported to her MelbourneIT partners:

"faster.co.nz, is hosting a site for atlarge.ws which is engaged in some rather egregious spamming behaviour."
hmmm.... who is hosted by faster.co.nz: icanntalarge.org or icannatlarge.com?

"Not only, therefore, does every person on this list receive emails from the list initiator, but every reply (which at the moment is hundreds of requests to be unsubscribed and the like) is sent to the entire list."
hmmm... in toto, the brainspammers flak and collateral effects represented 75 mails.

"Please contact me. I have been unable to contact faster.co.nz, and a resolution to this issue is needed quickly."
At the time she sends that mail, the initial mailing list is closed for 14 hours and the trap mailing list triggered by flakers is closed for 6 hours.

A full account of the action, of its reasons and of the possible motives of the person who tried to manipulate her have been given to:
Mrs. Adria J. Wilson
Contract Administrator
LucasArts, a division of Lucasfilm Entertainment Company Ltd.
Tel 415.444.8311
Fax 415.444.8698

Maybe someone will want to ask her who phoned?
