That wouldn't be too far from the truth in too many cases. Even with parental controls, my children were subjected to porn spam so much we had to close their accounts. Sending the information to the server did no good-as these articles attest, the sender just had to change certain details to get a new 'from' address. I have a few Hotmail boxes, 2 of which I use for sign-up to sites only and they get deluged- I just cleaned out 187 junk emails from one of them-took 3 weeks to accumulate that and from what I understand, that is kind of slow.
My brother had his identity stolen 3 years ago and is still not in the clear-the thief was actually traced to MY area, while my brother lives in NC.
Our own AOL was shut down 2 years ago because someone hacked into my husband's email address and sent out over 500 spams in his name. We were lucky-that was all that was done to us and it was cleared up quickly. But too many people have their financial lives ruined by these LOSERS who don't have the brass balls to face the world honestly and do legitimate work with their knowledge.
