ICICI – One of the biggest spammers

Posted in Random by Sunil Mohan Adapa on the July 24th, 2005

There are common spam messages comming to us everyday and most of them gets filtered out and no single spammer is all that annoying. Spamassasin and gmail keep both of my mailboxes very clean from spam. But unfortuntely I can’t filter all the spam. The bank people collect my email address with the pretext that they will send me statements and other important information. They send me hell lot of SPAM. I can’t filter them out because I want some information that some of those mails contain which is the basic service they promised me.

It is this kind of SPAM that I hate most. Today I opened my mailbox and saw that ICICI sent me a mail about some offer which is totally unrealated to my connection with ICICI. Oh wait! I have disconnected all my ties with ICICI more than a month back (good riddance, BTW). Then why the hell are they still sending me spam? At first I thought it might be some problem with their email system and did not unsubscribe me (how convinient for a spam machine). Then I looked at the mail and it did not have any message that would let me unsubscribe. I HATE them.

Now can I somehow complian to somebody (spamhaus?) so that everyone else who gets this spam is saved from the trouble? OK, not me, can a 100/1000 of us make a difference?
