Q: Cheap thrills?

I've been using the email and phone numbers spammers have been posting on this site for whatever junk gets in my email and useless sites that ask for an email address (sign up for newsletters and the like).

DO you know of any good mass-spam sites? I'd like to hit these f(*^&(^ers where it hurts and teach them a lesson.

A long time running pharmacy spam operation. They send tens of millions of spams per day using botnet techniques. Probably based in Eastern Europe, Ukraine/Russia. Host spammed web sites on botnets and on bulletproof Chinese web hosting.

2 Dante Jimenez / Aiming Invest - United States
Spamwarez, lists, "bulletproof" hosting in the finest South Florida tradition. Working with worst cybercriminal botnet spammers. Now mostly involved in massive botnet spamming with hosting on hacked servers and Eastern European hosters.

3 Michael Lindsay - United States
Lindsay's iMedia Networks is a full-fledged spam-hosting operation serving bulletproof hosting at high premiums to well known ROKSO-listed spammers. His customers spam via botnet zombies with spam payloads hosted offshore, tunneled back to his servers. He and the gang have been hijacking (stealing) IP address space from companies for years to spam from. Illegal in the USA.

4 Yair Shalev / Kobeni Solutions - United States
High volume snowshoe spammer from Florida, (former?) partner-in-spam of ROKSO spammer Darrin Wohl. Son-in-law of ROKSO listed spammer Dan Abramovich. Sued by FTC in 2014 due to fraud.

5 Mike Boehm and Associates - United States
Snowshoe spam organization that uses large numbers of inexpensive, automated VPS hosting IPs and domains in whatever TLD is currently cheapest to send high volumes of spam to extremely dirty, scraped lists. Operates under many business and individual names.

6 Yambo Financials - Ukraine
Huge spamhaus tied into distribution and billing for child, animal, and incest-porn, pirated software, and pharmaceuticals. Run their own merchant services (credit-card "collection" sites) set up as a fake "bank."

8 Streamdirect TV a/k/a "Adober" gang - Canada
Spamming for many years. All fraud scam spam. Originally sold fake versions of Adobe/Skype, anti-virus programs, and other software, and unauthorized TV feeds. Have criminally hacked the accounts of ESPs and ESP customers to pump out their spam. Have serially abused cheap VPS servers from IPs at Privacy.io, which does not log connections and cannot trace abusers. Although a Canadian spam operation, they have a strong Russian influence.

9 Jagger Babuin / BHSI - Canada
Romanian spammer now living in Vancouver BC. Also known as the "Dr Oz" spammer.

10 Josh Henderson or Nicholson - bulletproofvps.com- Canada
Offshore Bulletproof Hosting is his thing.

Yeah, but not actual "go-to" links that one can easily input our coveted spammer's email or phone numbers.

Think "mailing lists."

Or my personal favorite..."free" trial software that after inputting your personal information (email, address, phone number, etc) then asks you for your credit card number. Gawd knows how many spammers and scammers send mail to "123 Sesame Street"

You mean 'spam' I got in my email spam folder?

Ohh, I see. I don't save anything like that. Either, I'm buyer or I'm not, but never save. I run only Safari with tied block on spamming emails.

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
