AOL and Microsoft take a spammer to the cleaners

Posted by geeknews at 10:59 PM on June 28, 2004

I love these stories when Spammers get taken to court and then get body slammed. In a court ruling in Paris a spammer has to pay a fine of around 13,000 Euro’s along with their legal fees (ouch). He has to advertise the court ruling on his own website and pay for advertising on the ruling against him. I can not even imagine how much this ruling is going to cost by the time it’s all over but I bet he will never spam again. [ZDNet]
