    | 5 years is not enough Two Men Get Five Years For Sending Pornographic Spam Spammers Kilbride and Schaffer will also forfeit over $1.1 million in illegal proceeds from their spam operation. By Thomas Claburn InformationWeek October 15, 2007 03:35 PM Two men convicted of sending pornographic spam under the Can-Spam Act have been sentenced to serve more than five years in prison, the U.S. Department of Justice said on Friday. Assistant attorney general Alice S. Fisher of the criminal division and interim U.S. attorney Dan G. Knauss of the District of Arizona said that Jeffrey A. Kilbride, 41, of Venice, Calif., and James R. Schaffer, 41, of Paradise Valley, Ariz., had been sentenced to 72 months and 63 months in prison, respectively, for running an international pornographic spam ring that took in over $1 million. Kilbride received a longer sentence because the court found that he had obstructed justice by trying to deter a government witness from testifying in the case, according to the Department of Justice. Kilbride and Schaffer were fined $100,000, ordered to pay $77,500 to AOL, and will forfeit over $1.1 million in illegal proceeds from their spam operation. The Department of Justice claims the trial, which concluded in June, was the first to include charges under the Can-Spam Act. The Federal Trade Commission, however, announced the first successful criminal prosecution under the Can-Spam Act on April 29, 2004. A Department of Justice spokesperson was not immediately available to explain the claim. Kilbride and Schaffer began spamming in 2003, sending out millions of spam messages advertising hard-core porn sites. The messages contained graphic images that were visible to whoever opened the e-mail. Later in 2003, the two men began using servers in Amsterdam to make messages they were sending from Phoenix appear to be coming from outside the United States. On June 25, 2007, a federal jury in Phoenix convicted the two men of sending spam messages with forged headers and domain names, conspiracy, fraud, money laundering, and obscenity charges ------------------------ Fuck Spammers..... | ||||

  | Re: 5 years is not enough I would say that's a bit much. The prison system is a little overcrowded the way it is, no use letting out rapists for these faggots. | ||||

| Re: 5 years is not enough Spammers and Spyware / Adware developers should lose limbs or get major jail time. Maybe not for first offense, but they should get a lot more than a slap on the wrist. | ||||
