Clive Akass, Personal Computer World 27 Oct 2006

An Australian company and its director have been fined a total of 
AUD$5.5m (£2.2m) after it was claimed they sent more than 200 million 
spam emails in a 12-month period.

The Perth-based spammer, Wayne Mansfield, and his company Clarity1, were 
found to have illegally sent out millions of spam messages in the first 
year since Australian spam laws were introduced in April 2004.
