Golden Spammers - Fined For Spamming
In the runup to the Golden Spiders earlier this year I noticed several complaints about their mailing lists.
Both Peter and Mary Rose complained of having issues getting off the list despite several attempts.
Now it transpires that Mary Rose has not only reported the issue to the data privacy commissioner, but that the commissioner has ruled in her favour and Golden Spiders / Business and Finance will be forced to pay €500 to the charity of her choice.
Good!
If only more people took the time to report abusive emailings like this maybe Irish business would learn how to use email properly
