  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.
