Spam King gives up spamming
Anti-spam experts believe Scott Richter, the man dubbed the Spam King, has stopped sending junk email.
According to anti-spam campaign group Spamhaus, Richter has been removed from ROKSO - an authoritative list of the world’s most notorious spammers - after he decided to go straight earlier this year.
Once the second biggest spammer in the world, Richter, who currently faces lawsuits with Microsoft and the New York State Attorney, is said to be turning his efforts to legitimate opt-in bulk mailing.
