EarthLink wins 'Buffalo Spammer' case
EarthLink, one of the U.S.'s largest Internet service providers (ISP), on
May 7, 2003, won "monetary damages and injunctive relief" against Howard
Carmack of Buffalo, N.Y. - also known as the 'Buffalo Spammer' - in U.S.
District Court in Atlanta. Mr. Carmack was ordered to cease his spamming
activities and pay EarthLink $16.4 million in damages for using "stolen
credit cards, identity theft and other illegal means to purchase hundreds
of Internet accounts in order to send out 825 million unsolicited
commercial e-mails." EarthLink plans to tackle the growing spam problem
with a three-pronged approach: litigation, technical solutions and legislation.
