Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525)

I'm starting a new thread on this topic as the old threads have accumulated hundreds of comments and are a but unwieldy. For reference, the old threads follow:

I promised a post about my adventures resulting from Soloway's organization filing a complaint against me with Network Solutions (my registrar); I'll try to get to it this week.

As someone who works for a non-profit charity, I tend to think that all adverts and promos via the web or email from a charity as outreach are; corporate. Duh!? Wrapping himself in the flag of innocence and purity is a blatent move to sugar coat his motives and solicite sympathy from readers.

I read your blog regularly,
most of it is over my head so I look for amusing tidbits and occasionally find somehting that makes me laugh out loud; nothing as exciting as a death threat has ever caught my attention.

Sonya the charity sector wishes to do nothing about him - I have id and emailed the charities he 'helped' asking them for comments on the association. I recieved none back.

As a long term watcher of Bob the ignorance of others is no defence - while you in the non profit sector may 'laugh' at them (how charitable) you fail to distance yourself from him, which you could easily redeem do if you wrote about the danger on your websites.

But i don't like charities anyhow, perhaps when i see 'no association spam or with Soloway mssages' on non profit websites then my heart will melt.

Dont laugh - because im laughing at you Sonya and your 'non profit' stupid bosses.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 5/31/2006 10:05 PM sky

John Schmitt's address listed is actually a hotel called OAK TREE INN YERMO.

And thanks for the song reference... now I can't get that dang tune out of my head!

I got an actual personal email from Soloway. The address was of course forged but here's the IP info:

Received: from na-250-64.na.avantel.net.mx (148.245.250.64)
From: "Cook, Emil" <charityinfo@coolgoose.com>

Interesting - the IP address from Mexico matches some of the spams for pills and stock tips. Hey Soloway, do you use ttnet.net.tr as well?

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 6/1/2006 9:09 AM Bananas in the Falklands

Talk to Mr Schmitt at the Oak Tree inn Phone number: 760-254-1148

Send your wishes.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 6/1/2006 1:18 PM RR

Haw haw. I called the Oak Tree Inn and verified that he is using their address. Of course they were clueless and totally confused about what I was talking about.

I also called Network Solutions in my initial attempt to have his registration information verified. They said he was registered through a partnership with Sun Network INC. The contact info they gave me was: info@sunutility.com.

Of course if you visit sunutility.com, you'll see that it is not a domain registration site.

I'm new to this, but I finally ran his spam through spamcop and also reported the domain to internic. We'll see if that does anything useful.

I'm looking forward to a call back from the Manager at the Oak Tree Inn. This was the first that they heard that their address is being used by broadcastemailcorporation.org. I wonder if they'll be interested in this form of identity theft... if one can call it that.

sky... when you say you got an email from him... did you email JohnSchmitt2000@hotmail.com or some other address?

That is the one that I pulled up when I ran the whois search, though I notice it's not listed in the above report.

-RR

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 6/2/2006 4:46 PM JustThinking

You know, I've been thinking about how to address this problem.

As this slug has broken the law on several fronts but it seems the authorities are a little slow in the up-take, I think they could use a little persuassion.

It seems to me the positions of Govenor, Attorney General, Senator, etc... are elected positions. To an official up for election nothing speaks louder than "MONEY". Instead of putting our valuable time into stopping him maybe we should just put a pot of money together.

Then we could go the, say the AG, especially if he were up for re-election and say "You know, Our Anti-spam group would love to support your re-election efforts, if only you could be a little harder on spammers."

If there is interest in this I'll be a lead.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 6/2/2006 4:48 PM JustThinking

By "being tougher on spam" I don't mean fining them, I mean imprisoning them - for a long-long time.

Whenever you call anyone that Soloway is forging. be sure to tell them exactly WHO the criminal is that is responsible and his real address and phone number.

I just got another spam today from Soloway... www.thebroadcastemailcorporation.com is the latest site. And let's see: I have documented that on 04/07/2006, and with legal witness, that I requested that email address be removed from his list.

Great job on killing the broadcastemailcorporation.org site - that was quick! If Network Solutions doesn't pull the account by Monday I'll file abother complaint with the BBB. That sure makes them act quick!

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 6/4/2006 6:34 AM ScamBaiter

broadcastemailcorporation.org was up for over 2 weeks.. i wouldn't call that quick... it shouldn't take more than 24 hours to kill a domain...

and he has another 5 domains that are still up as we speak which load his site right up... and probably another 100 waiting in backup that we don't know about..

it's not like he doesn't aniticipate this or something.. he's prolly laughing his ass off that the only thing you guys can do is take his domains down... which have prolly been happening for a decade now all while making a fortune... for every domain that goes down another 5 pop up...

while i'm with you guys on getting this jerk.. it seems like your tactics are doing nothing to him.. and nothing to him fast...

It's a bit like Mcdonalds reputation - Bob's time will come.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 6/4/2006 12:58 PM me again

Anyone who uses a known spam king to advertise are committing crimes themselves. A quick Google of "Newport Internet Marketing" shows who they are dealing with.

If you had a business that had to change it's location and name every week or two, do think that you would be doing a very good business and what kind of message do you think it sends to any potential customers? Would you spend money at a store that is constantly getting closed for illegal and improper activities?

Fighting against spammers is working! Check out what was in today's paper: http://www.khou.com/news/state/stories/khou060604_ac_spammer.52c455e0.html

Soloway is clearly hurting and he's getting more and more sloppy. Why else would he be making so many stupid mistakes that can easily be traced back to him? This effort may seem grassroots but I can see that it's truly bringing justice.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 6/4/2006 1:20 PM JustThinking

It's clearly doing something. It probably is making his life harder BUT, he is still making money and is still free!

So long as the cost of doing "business" his way is less than the profit he will continue.

That is why I still say we get an organization to collect money & buy a politician! It's the only way to get them to move quickly. I don't know about in Seattle but here in St Louis even the local Prosecuting Attorneys are elected. Surely someone can be enticed into doing the right thing - hell they're enticed into doing the wrong things all the time.

There is probably an organization out there that would be perfect for the lead in this already. Maybe ROSKO? I don't know - I just know there are faster ways of getting to check mate than this.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 6/4/2006 5:49 PM Ace - JustThinking

I would be willing to give an organization like ROKSO or SPAMHAUS money to lead this, as long as it was directed at JERKY BOY BOOBIE. I wonder how much political pull those organizations have?

Heck the guy that hosts this blog works for Microsoft. They were a target of Soloway's spam till he figured that would fry him in the end.

Would good ol Bill be willing to go after him if we break our penny jars? And when I say go after him, I mean with a vengeance. All of the crimes and forgery/fraud he committed against all of us...

Might be better just to get a good attorney in Seattle.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 6/4/2006 10:08 PM sky

Latest generic email prefixes Soloway is using in his spam attacks:

accounting@<your domain name>

administrator@
orders@
postmaster@
mail@
root@

+ whatever email address you used on your domain WHOIS

If you use any of those common email addresses, then you will more than likely get dumped on with piles of his junk.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 6/5/2006 7:25 AM AI

Well, he's back again with http://www.thebroadcastemailcorporation.com

I had been tracking this down thinking it was John Schmitt from the whois db. I found the telephone number got cut off a day or two after I tried phoning it through the night :-D(I'm in the UK).

I too have been fed up with the continual mail even after unsubscribing. I shall continue to keep tracks on this guy wherever he pops up.

One idea I had a week or two back was a script that launches a concerted attack on anyone registering addresses for this idiot and others by taking the whois information.

If the admin and other contacts for the registrar gets bombarded with replies to all the spammed mail they will soon consider not registering domains for people like him. Course this defeats the object of diminishing the number of mails floating around the net but surely domain registration should be controlled more and this may begin to put pressure where it's needed. I.E. ISP's and registrars.

Still, you're never going to get rid of wastes of life such as him. Then again, you're allowed guns in the US, why don't you use one on him? (Hmm, am I a terrorist now for writing this?)

Just another quick update sorry if it's been mentioned in the saga. In attempting to track more information about the sad man I noticed that he's advertising The Broadcast Email Corporation as being a trade name of Newport Corporation in California. As he's obvioulsy nothing to do with them, I've asked their webmaster if he's happy with the association. Perhaps a large company can get him for using their name on his website terms and conditions.

http://www.thebroadcastemailcorporation.com/termsofuse-inline.html - look at the bottom of page.

In the olden days, phreakers and the like in the UK were barred by telecom operators from ever holding a telephone line due to their abuse of the system. How about some similar legislation for ISP's now?

At the end of the day, the 'net is like the old 'wild West' at the moment. Not many lawmen and a lot of space to cover. Regulators will eventually pin down these gaps but it will take time.

Till then FOADH dear Bob.

<Scambaiter> "Are you trying to say we are all birds of a feather and shit together as well?"

If the hat fits ......

Judging by the tone of this and your previous posts, I would say you`re "prolly" one of "them", rather than one of "us". Where's these so called "5" domains that are still up ?
If you were "with" us, then you would have posted the details - and then some... !!
Hey, you might even be Solowank himself, or at least a croney /sympathiser.
Post some incrimitaing Booby info, and maybe you`ll get believed !

At the very least, you`re prolly just a simple troll, or connected with one of the real morons:-

Did you know that several people agree with you throughout this long-long blog ?

Eric Richards, Sumtra, wittenwonder, JAson Collins, pete, Jason, crazydawg et al !
In fact, some of them almost word for word.

Most are "drive by" - Telling "us" (tinu) we are wasting our time - and to move on etc.
Not one of them mentions any useful info about Solowank. (Unlike the rest of "us"). Coincidence ? - If I was a cynic, I`d say that they might all be connected, but I`m not, so I wont :-)

OK,
There seems to be some interest in contributing to end this problem. Again, I think it best, for lack of a better way to describe it, to "buy a politician".

I can contact ROKSO and SPAMHAUS with the idea of heading this up.

After all, out pennies are just pennies but together they can be a significant # of $$. Also, given the cost of spam to ISPs and other web-related organizations there should be a substantial contributor base if the effort is well-organized.

Can I make the suggestion that we ZIP the contents of the previous blog and only supply a link to this one on that page. That way, none of the data will ever become corrupted and it will make others download and LEARN what a piece of crap we are dealing with here.

Am I wrong?

I will be happy to create the zip. However I am sure there are many of you more capable than I am.

As I mentioned I'll be keeping an eye on this as one of my domains is still being spammed by Soloway after repeated unsubscriptions. I wasn't going to post until I got a response but as I've had another spam, here you are.

The latest line I thought someone could look into is this claim that he's not a US citizen in the message purporting to be from him relating to the MS case against him.

I've sent a message to the US DHS asking if they are issuing a green card or if he truly is not an American citizen. I'm not sure if they will issue this information to an alien. Maybe enough complaints from US citizens would get some result.

Also not being sure about your freedom of information laws means I don't know what you could find out as a US citizen. If you can find out where he's from perhaps you could post him back in a brown paper envelope. Third class of course!

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 6/11/2006 12:22 AM me still

He's a US citizen. He owns a corporation that was formed in Washingon State. His family is from Washington state and he is careful to list any property under his other family member's name. His cars have WA plates and he also lists an address which he thinks is outside the US but it's actually one of the US territories.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 6/12/2006 3:25 AM Soloway's my dog's bitch!

I also own my own domain and get crap about thebroadcastspamservice etc etc. I've tried removing my domain at their site to no avail. I then left a legally threatening "reason" for removal the second time (to no avail) and just left a loud and angry message on their voicemail. I found it odd that when I looked up who owned the site (thebroadcastemailcorporation.com) it asked me if I would like to register it as nobody owned it at the moment (as of 30 minutes ago).
I've always wanted to visit his reported neck of the woods. Do you think an old-fashioned ass kicking with a clue-by-four would bring him around to our way of thinking?

I would never advocate harm to Bob Soloway - i'd not have a spammer to stalk, and the more he lives the more enemies he makes.

If he makes Seatle the #1 murder hotspot/crime area of America then Im sure those non spammy citizens might be inclined to do something (hi maxine)

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 6/15/2006 4:35 AM AI

So, still going, just the one more for now. Have filed a BBB complaint and one with Network Solutions.

The question is, if Soloway can get away with advertising his commercial enterprises by advertising a charity offer surely that is the way to go. If all companies follow this method (i.e. offer something for free that costs you nothing to offer) then we could ensure that the internet fills with so much mail that we'd no longer see Soloway's mails amongst the millions in our inboxes.

Surely this is a loophole in the law that could be closed? Spamming people to advertise a commercial practice by pretending to do charity work is exactly the same as spamming your own services directly. The link in the mail doesn't even go to the charity offer, instead to the front page of a commercial website.

I can see my next mailshot now. "I will sing a song for free for every charity responding to my web form on one page of my website that contains 1000 other pages offering commercial goods. This offer is only for charity so please don't go to the link I'm advertising if you are not a charity, I wouldn't want to make money from you!" Are the laws really that stupid - don't answer that!

thebroadcastemailcorporation.com works fine for me. Your DNS must not be working.. the damn domain has been up for 2 weeks now.

Is there anything really we can do? This guy obviously has enough resources and contacts to keep doing this for years.

And with his "charity" emails, he isn't breaking can-spam since the "primary purpose isn't commercial in nature".

So can-spam doesn't even apply. This guy obviously knows what he has been doing and is probably laughing at us all right now..

Surely there must be something that can be done. How long has he been doing this?

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 6/16/2006 6:17 AM Bananas in the Falklands

If we have to make Bob move every month even in China were doing something right

As to refining his process I disagree - the fake names/addresses (seen before John Schmitt) would seem to indicate that even the Chinese registrar .cn is wary of him - hence his movement back to .com.

We all know what a bob soloway website looks like too and he keeps sending those emails, so the next time you hear a Chinese communist say spam is 'unhealthy' and there going to have a crackdown you know better - by continually hosting Bob China really loves spammers.

I think it's time to come to terms with.. yes we fought hard.. but we lost. The damn spammers now account for 85% of email sent out, more than any ever before according to a recent article I just read!

The spammers won.. there's so much crap going on in the world right now and in 4 years the government has yet to convict a single individual under can-spam.

While yes we can all wish and pray it would happen, I think the reality of it is, we know there is too much out there the damn government is dealing with to care about a bunch of emails.

Hey all, Been kiteboarding and working 'up North' on a big email system in the UK.

Thanks for the welcome Bananas 'tis a bit of fun watching the powers that be do little in response to these little problems.

So saying, yars the DNS was playing up and when back home thebroadcast..... was still there. Have posted a follow up complaint to NS as I had no response to that nor the BBB yet. As of yesterday, still getting them. None from HOC8.COM.

As for giving up, governments will always lag behind in looking after laws and have to be prodded to keep them going. Spammers 'waste life' by making us sort and delete their mail. If this were comparable to a phone message and you received 30 voice mails in a day with only 1 relevant to you how much of your life is wasted checking them all? If that message were informing you of something important to your life and you miss it because of the others clogging up your inbox then it has again affected your life. SenderID or another method of stopping messages being 'dropped' into the net without a true provenance or traceable route is the only way to go. Is there any reason that we don't want to know where a message has come from? I'd rather have an extra load on the size of a message sent than an increasing number of spams per day.

thebroadcastemailcorporation.com is up and running. Got an email from myself today and the site is operational.
So, I called and spoke with the fine people at the Oak Tree Inn and actually spoke with their IT department about the fact that their address is listed as the owner.
I think I convinced them to at least report that fact as incorrect and maybe even get some type of law enforement involved. They seemed to be very nice about it and appreciated the info.
With my limited knowledge, it's about the best I can do....

This pus filled boil recently was forging headers with one of our domains to victimize people. He chose poorly.

Called this morning and mentioned that this was a serious error on his part.

As of tonight his site thebroadcastemailcorporation.com is gone.

There are individuals in this world who can be clinically diagnosed with 'Anti-Social Personality Disorder.'

This means they do not have the ability to distinguish the boundries in what constitutes acceptable 'moral' behavior within the societies into which they are born.

They have no ability to empathize with fellow human beings, which is to say that this is what allows them to do injurious things to people, that other 'normal' (healthily balanced) civilized human beings would never act on.

The only response to such continual and fixated pursuit of such damaging serial anti-social behavior can be one of containment.

There appear to be some excellent bloodhounds on this cur's trail, but, containment is ultimately going to be the only answer in the long run.

So thank you for my first mail of the day if you're tracking where you send the individual ones you'll know it's me and here I come :-D

Newport Email Broadcasting Corporation huh? Please Bananas and all, track the registration of this corporation that advertises as being around for 10 years. D'you have advertising standards authorities in the US that stop people making false statements? Bit messy Bob, your redesign of the website left The IE page header as NIMC: The Broadcast Email Corporation. Thought you knew what you were doing - getting sloppy?

So, IP registrar info etc.;

might want to know at China/Beijing Telecom
Same on www.emarketingcorp.cn = 202.167.234.202 - abuse@telus.com would probably like to know about their address being used by him for the website. Good place to get him shut down if in the US...

Didn't get the source bot sending as I'm forwarding mail in so no SMTP header.

Have sent mail to shanghai@hichina.com informing them of their resident spammer.

I'm running out of time today so as you're all waking up over the pond, please take up the reins and get on with the closing him down.

Looking at the dates of setup, he's presumably getting several backups set up so that when one goes he can bring another up straight away.

It's impossible to pin Slobaway down to a single server. He sets up false WHOIS domains and scatters them around the world... usually hacking into other legit servers and hiding them in there.

For example:
The last 2 domains are hosted on the servers for the Cable Radio & TV Network Info Ltd. HaiDian Beijing, China.

His one site that appeared at http://62.149.193.221/broadcastemail/ was also a hacked into server owned by Zerouno Studio Srl in Rome.

He had one at http://147.46.30.174/broadcastemail/ for the longest time. That server is owned and operated by the Seoul National University.

And that's just a small sample of how he operates.

In addition, he uses other sources when he actually sends out the spams. He's been known to use viruses to gain control of people's PCs and turn them into spam machines. He also sets up tons of free email accounts (and has advertised to pay people to do the same) he then spams out of those accounts until they are closed.

Earlier this year when he forged one of my domains in his spam attack (and I received notices of nearly 2 million bounced emails where he set the return address as mine in his blanket spamming)it showed that he typically sent out spams in blocks of 20-25 from different IP addresses, and they always changed.

He uses programs like DarkMailer that jumbles together names as the senders... We have all seen these random addresses: DiegoHendrick5@ AudreyRodriguez48@, HermanJordan517@ etc. etc.

When I received my "personal" email directly from him it traced back to Mexico from na-250-64.na.avantel.net.mx (148.245.250.64) and the spam I received today came from (HELO 226.red-82-159-9.user.auna.net) (82.159.9.226)which is from Spain.

So it's impossible to track him down to a single server, though I did set up a domain once that he started spamming & the stats page showed only one IP address as a visitor... which just so happened to be out of Washington state.

Well that explains who 'nemisis' was

Srange he didnt want to sue himself mind you is it technically possible to be the victim and defendant in law?

One might thus class his threat as a sucide attempt, chuckle.

Probably another alias to add to our "infiltrator" list of aka's as per *:-http://blog.opsan.com/archive/2006/05/25/28138.aspx#28889

Search for any posts by those names throughout the whole Soloway topics, and you`ll get the gist.
As those tactics didn`t work, "prolly" (sic) our cuckoo turned to dirtier methods - Now who do we all know, that could possibly be capable of that ?

I received several bounced back emails from "myself"referencing broadcastemailgroup.com, emailbroadcastcompany.com, thebroadcastemailcorporation.com, and flyingibi.com. My internet service provider says it was forged and there is nothing they can do about it? Is there someone to complain to? I tried calling 206-223-1270 number referenced on the website but there never seems to be a customer service representative "available" so I left a message and, of course, never heard from anyone. How can I get them to stop using my email address? Do I have anything I should be concerned about in them using my email? Thanks for any responses.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 7/22/2006 12:47 PM Bananas in the Falklands

Welcome Bara to the Bob Soloway zone. If you have spf that might help

Bob is a character, and does not give a stuff about you or the abuse of your email. It depends on what your prepared to pay to run a proper dns server and email box, but if you accept emailfrom.anybody@yourdomian (wildcard). then except abuse.

I hope you have an abuse@dom address too.

I too received an email this morning from my own primary email address with an ad for broadcastemailgroup.com. I called the 541 telephone number and told the answering machine to stop using my address and I would complain to the FBI. I did leave the FBI an email about it but I'm sure they have more important criminals to attend to. Who else should I call? He stole my email address.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 7/25/2006 3:06 AM AI

Hello again! Back from the bowels of a massive Exchange 2003 build and a quick Bobbette update.

I checked out this latest broadcastemailgroup.com with Network Solutions and they say the domain registration is transferred to a wholesale partner of theirs.

The details that show up (as with previous sites) are for good old sun-networks.com with the following details from Network Solutions

RE: BROADCASTEMAILGROUP.COM
Please find enclosed your ISP’s Information you requested:
Company : Sun Network, Inc.
Tel.: 702-284-7493
E-mail : ZUBAIR.RAFIQUE@SUN-NETWORK.COM
kkra
Customer Service Representative
Network Solutions, Inc.
www.networksolutions.com

I recall this info from previous spam sites set up. Question is, do Network Solutions really want people like this as a partner?

I also did my usual complaint mail to all associated name servers, registrars, bot client originating message and the registered email address for the domain. Looks like the addresses listed below have some link with Bobette as the email domain I complained from is now getting the same spam. No real worries, I turn off all my filters just to get Bobbie's mails.

Name servers and bot client registrars:

'abuse@iomart.com'; 'abuse@cnc-noc.net'; 'hongde@hdcatv.com'; 'ipas@cnnic.net.cn'; 'shenzhi@cnnic.cn'; 'abuse@fjdcb.fz.fj.cn'

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 7/25/2006 4:03 AM Bananas in the Falklands

Bobs been hijacked ? views please a firm called expedite-email-marketing / 19 South Broadway Aurora IL 60505 - phone 630-8976448

Its american rather Chinese, but it appears to me that one lot of spammers has invaded Bobs spam turf.

Soloways: theemailcorporattion.org (up six days)

now reports no dns, but registration still active.

existing two domains still up

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 7/26/2006 11:40 PM sky

But NetworkSolutions still has NOT acted on closing the accounts like they have done in the past.

Soloway also has a new logo on his spam farm.

NPRT: THE BROADCAST EMAIL CORPORATION

He's been doing a lot of the "1-day only" sale of 50% off. Looks like business is hurting! Hey Robert: It's not a 1 day sale when you have it up there every day.

PS - now that you are done forging my domain's email addresses to the tune of around 2 million forged spams, what do you think is the legal recourse in this matter whereas your firm stole and forged my business name in a mass email campaign?

I'll give you a hint:
INTERNET PRIVACY

YOU DID NOT HAVE MY PERMISSION TO STEAL MY DOMAIN AND FLOOD THE INTERNET WITH MILLIONS OF FORGED SPAMS PROMOTING YOUR COMPANY.

Damages for Unauthorized Disclosure. The greater of $500 or actual damages for a violation (plus costs, disbursements, and reasonable attorney's fees) may be awarded. However, no class actions are permitted.

Hmm.. let's see. I have in my possession around 2 million emails that were forged by Soloway and illegally listed my domain name as the senders. Under Minnesota law I get $500 per violation. Since you brag about never having to pay any lawsuits then maybe I'll just ask for prison time instead.

theemailcoporation.org has new host at (old hoster stopped serving) now at 210.83.200.219 (China) daihy@china-netcom.com / abuse@cnc-noc.net (like they give a shit)

Of more interest is that Bob is using a opensource email box called Open Mail (ex HP) 2.40.

I just stumbled across that - so expect spam from the .org and we might see some interesting headers soon ?

screen dumps whatever can be found on the webpage url should you be interested it hopefully adds to the picture of things at comrade Soloways disposal.

Looks like a new site after reading the list of the sites this jerk uses. I hope this will help someone tighten the circle around him.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 8/10/2006 4:31 AM Ed

Crazy One !
As DOG mentioned - Before repeating info, and adding to the already saturated load of s**t attributed to Solowank here, try reading before posting.
If you can`t be bothered to do that, then a simple "Find" on page(s) in your browser would have turned up many hits - Starting here:-
http://blog.opsan.com/archive/2006/05/25/28138.aspx#28671">http://blog.opsan.com/archive/2006/05/25/28138.aspx#28671

As for "who" and "where" Booby is, once again, this is all documented via this site and many others. A simple Google search would have also gotten you any/all of the information !

Just by starting at the top of this page, would reveal a mine of info, including a number of other related threads. Try it here:-
http://blog.opsan.com/archive/2006/05/25/28138.aspx

Consider this a mild "spanking", and as DOG also remarked, go try the same thing on others such as SpamCop/Nanae if you really like it :-)

Incidently, if you had simply clicked on DOG's URL, (highlighted in red above - and every post) http://www.solowaysucks.net/
would have also achieved relevant details !!

Now back to business for the rest of us :-)

I,m new to all this technical internet stuff, I run a kids martial arts organisation in Australia - www.aussieninjakids.org and was told by a 'friend' (friendship now under review) about this 'great' opt in broadcast email thing that he was emailed about and that it could spread the word about our club as we are offering a home study DVD for kids world wide.
I checked out the site 'broadcastemailgroup.com' it looked ok to me (remember I'm a newbee to this) and purchased this bastards 1,500,000 email service at $139 USD ($185 AUD) via debit card!
this was several days ago and his website has since disappeared. I'm contacting federal police hear in Australia as they have an Internet Fraud squad, don't imagine I'll see my money again . . . HOWEVER I AM A NINJA (for real !) OF 23 YEARS EXPERIENCE AND PART OF AN AUTHENTIC INTERNATIONAL ORGANISATION BASED IN JAPAN, I AM TRAVELING TO THE US IN THE NEXT 6 MONTHS FOR A 2-3 MONTH TRAINING PERIOD WITH A US SHIHAN.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 8/15/2006 8:33 AM Bananas in the Falklands

Sensei, Mr Soloway has pulled some stunts in his time look at 'nemisys' - so doing a 'hong kong phuey' (a cartoon of old) is not a way of getting respect here.

Consider your money 'lost', and should the package turn up, I would not use it, australians sending spam to each other is not something your government likes you doing.

Consider yourself inducted in to the strange universe of Bob Soloway, who got off lightly Im sure you dont want to be creating pdf documents on your website titles IAMNOTASPAMMER.PDF

Billing codes/other financail transaction details would be nice for you post to which somebody else asked you for.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 8/15/2006 10:30 AM sky

Sensei - you are lucky that you got off so cheap. If Soloway would of actually sent out your emails your site would be blacklisted as a spam site. Soloway uses forged headers and his "opt-in" lists are actually harvested and generic email addresses. They are not opted in.

Soloway's sites are also not secure... so you basically wrote your credit card number on a post card and threw it in the (cyber) mail for everyone to see. With all the hooha on ID theft it would be wise to place an alert on your card.

Thanks for posting the email address! I just filed a complaint with the hosting firm for emailsupport@msbx.net.

In addition, Soloway just spammed me with another site at http://www.emailadvertisingcorporation.com/

Looks like it's time to contact NetworkSolutions again!

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 8/15/2006 6:39 PM Sensei Hoffe

'You have sent me an email.......From Gary@cncretrofit.com To same......

What do I do know?! Replies to the email are returning. Are my online organisations sites screwed????!!!!
I don't know what to do about this I'm not that technically minded re internet.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 8/15/2006 9:35 PM sky

Welcome to the evil world of Soloway. Sounds like that little worm is sending out your website emails and forging another person's domain email addresses as the sender. That's a classic spammer trick.... he used one of my domains for millions of spams.

The dude at cncretrofit.com is probably receiving thousands of returned emails now because of Soloway and his domain has now been tarnished so I can fully understand why he's pissed. You are screwed on this one Sensei. If your domain was listed in Soloway's spams and he forged cncretrofit.com email addresses then your prints are on the smoking gun.

This is why spam is illegal... Soloway doesn't care about the law which is why he's a criminal.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 8/15/2006 11:54 PM Sensei Hoffe

Is there any fix to save my organisations ass?
It's a kids organisation for f*ck sake !
Who can I notify about this in the US or what online authorities?

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 8/16/2006 12:00 AM sky

Go look up the WHOIS on cncretrofit.com and call the owner. Let him know what happened and who is actually forging his domain email addresses. With my domain, I had to wipe out the entire business site because of Soloway's forging my email addresses. It totally ruined the resale value of the domain.

Tell the owner of cncretrofit.com exactly who is forging his addresses and who he should contact. (The FBI for ID theft, the WA AG at CCRCman@ATG.WA.GOV etc.) Let the owner know about the laws in his state at http://www.spamlaws.com/state/ga.shtml and what legal action he can take.

And then hope this doesn't wipe out your domain's creditability. Which it probably will.

Call your credit card company and report him for fraud and request a refund.

Contact your hosting firm, HOSTNETCENTER.COM , and explain to them what happened and that your IP address will more than likely be blacklisted. They'll probably drop you, but I'm thinking that if you explain to them ahead of time it just might save your butt a little.

Though it all boils down to the basic rule of NEVER BUY FROM A SPAMMER. Sorry dude, but companies who use that spammer's services are typically the low-life (v) and fake Rolex sites that are here today and gone tomorrow.

There's plenty of others just like you. You should read the complaints that are logged at the BBB against that jerk.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 8/16/2006 2:55 AM Bananas in the Falklands

short term: Nobody can really help you, cross your fingers and hope for the best - you might get get chucked off your webhost, or lose your domain name depending on how annoyed people get.

long term: You might also acquire a spam reputation should anybody google you.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 8/16/2006 7:23 AM Sensei Hoffe

I've emailed the 4 charities listed on his website and asked if they are aware of the claimed association with his corporation and if thay are aware of his 'dubious' activities, I've emailed Visa, mastercard and AMEX and done the same, afterall he accepts credit cards for his 'dubious' activities, don't suppose they'll be happy and I've reported this to the FBI (internet crimes) and Australian Federal Police (internet task force), plus emailed my webhost to give them the headsup.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 8/16/2006 6:27 PM DOG

Because the Internet is LAZY and people ignore crimes till they are hurt personally. Solojerk is self proclaimed broke as a bum on the street corner, and as Sky will tell you, screws the dog (not me) in the front yard of bumville.

He says he has people that support him because he is so successful at this (spamming) and does not own anything. --- = "Sued multiple times with huge judgments pending. In the summer of 2005, a court ordered him to no longer break the law. That didn't help as he continued."

"Piece of crap" = Sums it up!

Wow, I always thought this was another company that my company was going to have to sue for harassment. Our security department started an investigation on the emails we received and they told me I should look at this. We have been receiving the emails for quite some time now. We sent them emails on their website and told them we were going to call the seattle police department, we told them that our attourneys were looking into this, and we told them that we were prepared to persue a lawsuit against them. I never knew it was just a big kid spamming people. Our security department also ran a check on the address that is listed on the website, and it is not a valid address. The street name and number is not even in that zip code. So I have to ask, why is this website still running? Why hasn't the federal government done something about this seeing that this is an interstate crime? How in the hell did he get our email addresses? Does anyone know how to stop this loser from harrassing my company and employees and the rest of us?

Shane

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 8/17/2006 9:28 PM sky

Nope - that's a real address. I know someone who works down the street from that jerk. Soloway isn't just some big kid sending out emails.... he's made millions and millions and has the cash all over the place, including offshore. Though he's going to be surprised about his property on the island.

The address he lists can be seen at http://local.live.com/?v=2&sp=aN.ry0xgv4t50yv_1001%25204th%2520Ave%252c%2520Seattle%252c%2520WA%252098154-1119%252c%2520United%2520States___

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 8/18/2006 12:59 AM Shane

Okay, then if people are aware of this loser, and his illegal actions, why hasn't he been arrested yet? Apparently, he has commited a federal crime seeing that he has affected peoplein multiple states and nothing has even been done yet. People like him do not deserve to roam this earth. I ordered my company to save all of his emails on the 3rd of August, and we now have a total of 11 emails since that date. That's rediculous to have that many after we asked to be removed from their mailing list. However, now I know exactly why we haven't been removed; because he is a scammer. It's sad that the loser can't get off his ass and get a real job. How did he obtain our email addresses anyway? Does anyone know how he got them? Also, the millions of dollars that he made needs to go back to the rightful owner. No one deserves to be scammed under any circumstances and it pisses me off to see dumb asses like him.

now doa: Netsolutions kills - emailadvertisingcorporation.com - 'no such domain'

and thebroadcastemailcoporation.com which is strangley 'up for sale' by our friends at moniker.com - further details like uptime, etc on the bananas link

fwiw: visits to thebroadcastemailcoporation.com will probably mean spyware/adware thrugh popup ads infections so use some browser protection you have been warned.

I have read all the postings on this site-my experience down to the "t". FBI, Swiss Cyber Crime, Japanese, registrars, ISPs (in China), and e-mail providers yahoo.com all the way to yahoo.au)-I have chased this arse-hole for 2 years! I have literally hundreds of BROADCASTMARKETINGCORP.COM (and all the other domain names that he employs when he gets booted from an ISP) e-mails (sometimes as many as 8 a week!) archived for the day that someone wants evidence against him.

Nothing works including the US government! Well, almost nothing. Occasionally, I accidentally drop and forget a heavy object on the F5 button (browser cache refresh) while at his contact form requesting, for the gzillionth time, that our e-mails be removed from his SPAM list. I know, I know-I am awfully clumsy! Anyway, he responds very quickly with a SPAM, to which of course in my clumsy manner I have to request again, for the gzillion-and-first time that our e-mails be...well you get the picture-he does get irritated since I guess he has to pay his ISP by the bandwidth (how many users access his site) which is a wee bit of consolation to our company...Hopefully law enforcement will get tough soon...but I will definitely work on that F5 clumsy thing!

That's why I was hoping someone who purchased his fake opt-in lists would be able to provide us with some sort of routing information. Not because what he's doing is illegal, but because his website is not secure and if the credit card firms knew that he was exposing people's credit info on an overseas unsecured web they would cancel his merchant accounts.

His order page (as seen on the domain of the SPAM that I received today http://www.broadcastemailcorporation.com/orders/doemailorder.php) is in no way even remotely secure, and Soloway is falsely representing is site as SSL with the improper use of the QuickSSL Certification logo (the image in the upper left corner). Shame shame Bobby... I just reported you on that one.

In addition, in 2004 the credit card industry required all merchants to not only use encrypted forms, but their servers and network had to be "hacker proof" or also known as PCI Compliant. Any merchant whose computers and servers are not PCI compliant (which Soloway's are definitely not) can be fined and/or have their merchant account cancelled, thus not be allowed to process credit cards.

Anyone who enters credit card information on his sites is an an extremely high risk of having their credit card information fall into the wrong hands..... extremely high! Entering data on his sites is like writing your credit card number on a postcard and mailing it around the world.

example: http://usa.visa.com/business/accepting_visa/ops_risk_management/cisp.html

If someone who was suckered into his false advertising would please call their credit card company and find out who the processing company was that handled Soloway's charges, then we can take this to the next level.

Yes Ed... But for some reason every time I try it says "Please be patient, the search feature is busy, so... While you are waiting, view some of the recent TV News videos below."

I will try it again later tonight... Might be getting heavy traffic.

Hi DOG :-) - Thanks for trying & See what you mean !

I think their search function leaves a lot be desired, as well as their insistance on pop-ups ! (blocked of course).
When it eventually gets there, it brings up four reports from 2004/05/06 right up to this month. Individual links seem to load better:-

I have recently had a ton of these and wish i had researched sooner because i spent a few hundred dollars on their 35 million email address database of OPT IN emails as they put it. I received a nicely presented package through the post by fedex and it has two cds, one is the database and one is broadcast email software. HOWEVER, before using it (my first time even thinking about email marketing) a friend of mine said that sounded way too cheap, and so before i send anything i did some research and HERE I AM!!
I can handle losing a few hundred bucks (i don't mean i am happy about it, and i will throttle the head off the ***** if i ever get the chance) but my biggest worry is that by sending to this broadcast list or some of it, i could be reported as a spammer and get my website blacklisted off of google, yahoo etcetera. THIS is my main worry, obviously as well as emailing people who have indeed NOT opted in to anything after all.
Could someone in this forum perhaps email me at betty dot howard@virgin.net and perhaps advise me on what you would do in my shoes, i.e. bin this package, have a stiff drink and take it on the chin, or whether it may be safe to try a few thousand off this list to see if anyone objects. As far as i am concerned, this could be:

a) genuine business
b)half genuine (real opt in list, but promoting using spam emails)
c) complete scam all round with these email addresses being nothing more than email address captures from the web.

Any comments on this?
Thanks for being there, maybe you guys just saved my business.
P.S. If anyone knows where to physically find the swine who is behind this, do let me know because i would happily have him cut into pieces and fed to my 5 german shepherds! (only kidding) (well, maybe slightly serious)
:>)

Hi John some of us are interested in credit card processors used by Mr Soloway (that be sky), I will email you and if your up to popping the cds in a envelope to me i would like to examine them for the purpose of my webpage (or copies) which you may like to visit.

We have an address in England which i assume would be preferable to you being a virgin customer and i imagine uk based so it wont kill you for postage.

I want an assurance from you that this will be anon and you wont email Bob any details

Bob Soloway is no 'businessman' Learn about him I will email you off list.

Hi, and thanks for a speedy reply. You have my assurance that i don't know anyone called Bob (except a dead uncle and he aint listening any more) but if i ever meet one or talk to one, then you have my personal guarantee that there ain't no such thing as bananas in the falklands as its freezin over there!!!!!!
Thanks, will email you back mate.

Hi John & Welcome !
Sorry you had to meet us via the solowank "fan" club in this way.

In answer to your options above:
a)NO Way
b)NO Way
c) "Complete scam all round with these email addresses being nothing more than email address captures from the web." - is nearer the mark, but unfortunately only just scrapes the surface of this lowlife and it's activities. I'm sure you`ll get more than enough info from "Bananas" to make your decision. However, most here will say, the bottom line is:- "Do not even consider using a single email address - or any promotion method/software from those CD's" !
As well as risking your reputation, business and inflaming millions of unsuspecting "victims" you would end up losing a lot more, with no possible gain.

Our fellow poster "Sky" had a complete site and domain name ruined:-
http://blog.opsan.com/archive/2006/05/25/28138.aspx#35470

Also "Sensei Hoffe" - a kids martial arts organisation in Australia :-(
http://www.aussieninjakids.org/security_notice.htm

There's also an open letter (6 pages in PDF format) from another victim that fell for it, and as the emails actually went out, was unable to stop it :-(
http://contentseed.com/I-AM-NOT-A-SPAMMER.pdf

These are just some examples of the scum we are dealing with i.e. solowank - (Robert Soloway)(Robert Allen Soloway)(Bob Soloway) - spit spit ! - Real names added for the benefit of archiving, Googlebot & others :-)

Well done for researching first, and kudos to your concerned friend - You owe him at least a six-pack :-)

More info (should you need it) available via "Dog"'s site:- http://www.solowaysucks.net/ and many others out there in GoogleLand :-)

Good Luck !!!

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 8/30/2006 8:30 AM let's **** Soloway (any 4-letter word you like)

Got these ones in Belgium to: emailadvertisingagency.org

By dozens... the bastard...

My counter is over 1000 mails received last two months.

Tried to file complaints via legal way (as spamming is a crime in Belgium) but I'm not taken seriously by authorities... "everybody gets spam"...

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 8/30/2006 11:14 AM sky

That's the same problem here in the USA, and the "Seattle Spam Queen" knows this very well.

I just received a batch of his spams today... the EMAILADVERTISINGAGENCY.ORG one, and they were sent to addresses that I placed on his removal list months ago. Note: I was instructed as per a 3rd party to officially request removal to see if he would comply. And he did not.

To John Howard: You are lucky that you did not use his spam list as your site would of certainly been shut down and blacklisted. His email addresses are far from "opted in" and any of my 400+ domains whose email addresses are on there proves this. Perhaps we should send all of those 35 million email addresses a nice little note stating exactly who is selling their private email accounts for financial gain?? My 2,000,000 bounced spams that I received when he forged one of my domains were even sent to my own email addresses on other domains!

John, I mentioned this before for someone else but I'll do so again. You ABSOLUTLY need to contact your credit card company and let them know that you were defrauded & that you unknowingly placed sensitive credit card information on a website that was not secure. Your card info was bounced around the globe on a public packet... his site is not secure and he is falsely displaying a Secure site SSL logo. Put a claim in on your payment to him and place an alert on it... when enough people do this it raises a major flag at the processing center.

You should also contact reportfraud@geotrust.com and ask them why their logo is being used on an unsecured site.

Credit card ID theft is the fastest growing crime and non-secure websites is a prime example on how criminals gather this info... so you really need to be aware of this matter and so does your credit agency.

And for the record email the Washington State Attorney General at CCRCman@ATG.WA.GOV and at http://www.atg.wa.gov/consumer/forms/index.shtml. It's useless right now but a complaint needs to be registered there.

Soloway sold you a list that was advertised as opted-in. Soloway forged email headers in spamming you in the first place. Soloway gravely placed your credit at risk by using a non-secure website to process credit card information and illegally using Secure SSL logos to fool you into thinking it was a safe and legal site.

So we have trademark violations, fraud/false advertising, forgery and theft of services (for his little server hacking incidents). Did I miss anything?

Several more options to dealing with this arsehole:
1. dump your whole SPAM list on his "request removal (contact form)." Since he promptly e-mails these addresses, he will end up duking it out with other spammers which could get quite nasty (for him).
2. dump a whole bunch of law enforcement and lawmakers addresses, especially from the USA which has tougher anti-apm laws, on his contact form. He will will SPAM this list (his program is automated, and I do not think that he has the time to check thousands of address each day). The thinking is that if he pisses enough folks of in law enforcement, they will get serious about going after him.

Seems to me that in order to bring this arsehole down, we have to play by his rules...

I am actually kind of amused. I have been on vacation for a little while and I just checked my email from work and I received another email. I clicked on a couple of the links and some of the web pages said that the page could not be found. On one of the links that I clicked on, the page opened. I went to the order page and clicked on the pull down menu for the payment options. There was a number (2062231270) in the list. I called that number and requested for my company to be removed, and they hung up on me. Then I entered ficticious information, along with a ficticious credit card number and billing address, and it went through. That would not work on any other website. Why the hell isn't our damn government doing anything about this fool? Is he paying them money not to do anything? What the hell is going on? Why are we still receiving emails?

Hi sky dns for broadcastemailinc.com is dead, domain is still registered to a very nice Chinese ?girl? called Liu Fei c/o xia meng who may or may not be Robert.

Fingers crossed anyhow.

As to the virus issue netsky is a bit common, and if i read the link the virus only propigates itself, and does not give Control unlike trojan.spybot something which the emails I saw seemed to match it use with that virus (in theory)..

Heads up-broadcastemailinc.com is dead, but we will be hit with SPAM from his next re-incarnation pretty soon. Just before his domain name is taken down, he has a habit of sending one last e-mail (received this morning). A couple of days...

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 9/12/2006 10:49 PM sky

Looks like Soloway is back to hosting on forged domains! Hey Sol: "16175 Andrews Ct" In Monte Serno belongs to a Mr. James Joye. I'll call him tomorrow and let him know exactly WHO falsely listed his address.

And it appears ol' Bobby fell for it here. I set up a website to catch a rat and it worked! I purchased and hosted spidertesting.com with the sole purpose of proving that Soloway blankets new domains with his illegal spams. The website was set up only for one purpose... the domain name was never used before and no email addresses were ever listed anywhere. This was done under full knowledge of a certain "third party". It was done to prove that Booby hits new domains and he fell right into the web.

I just got a Soloway spam on it tonight. Thanks Bob! See ya in court!

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 9/13/2006 8:00 AM DOG

Called him at his house tonight and when he REFUSED to talk to me AGAIN (after answering and knowing who I was) ... I updated my webpage as a WANTED poster... It will only get worse for you BOOBIE.

BOOBIE, try as you may. Opsan, thanks for doing a great job. Keep up the good work!!!

Dog - I've yet to ring Robert, and I wont be giving up either. While it looks like I spend a lot of time (or money) on Bob. In fact it keeps my html skills (not something i'm doing much of but nice to have) up to date and my disgust of the xhtml dtd.

Strangely like opsan my webpage contact feature died.

So i emailed them and the german who runs it mailed me back and said sone spammer killed it and it is now ok. Ive got two now - just for fun.

I wonder who that was. A mystery.

I have still been getting this guy's spam emails. I am still trying to understand how he got our email addresses in the first place. I sent a complaint to the Washington State Attourney General, and obviously, they aren't doing anything about it. It makes no sense that none of the governments in the world wants to do anything about this little boy. It's obvious that what he is doing is highly illegal, and no law enforcement agency is taking action against him. Does anyone think he is paying government officials to keep their mouths shut, or is it just me? My hands are in the air, and all I can do is pray that this ends. All I know is when justice is brought upon him, he is gonna be loved in prison, and he'll probably get married...

...to Bubba!!!

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 9/17/2006 11:53 PM sky

How did he get your address? First, he looks at any recently registered domain and fires out up to 25 of the most commonly used email addresses of which a website uses....accounting@, advertising@, billing@, feedback@, home@, help@, accounts@, contact@, admin@, guest@, administrator@, orders@, postmaster@, mail@, root@, support@, webmaster@, service@, uucp@, info@, information@, test@<your domain name> are some of his most common uses. I have emails from about 100,000 domains that he used this trick on. If your email address starts with this then you will get his spams.

He also spiders WHOIS domain registration information and spams those as well. I specifically set up domains and hosted them just to prove this fact and he bit. He was also baited and bit on several occasions on this one with different sites that I own.

God forbid if you were to enter an email on his removal list. I fed him several ones that were set up specifically to see what he would do. Those addresses were NEVER used before, and were only created to enter on Soloway's site. The result was tons of spams on those addresses, all for pheromones, his generic viagra scams, and even a few casino & stock pump and dump spams were thrown in for good measure.

He also rolls through addresses, though I'm not quite sure his method on this one. For example, I'm looking at a printout of his spam sending on May 01,2006 at 8:06am. My evidence showed that he was sending out his spams in small packets of 25 at a time. The printout that I am looking at is for a domain called lcmkassociates.com and he targeted addresses that all started with the letter P: Pagan, Paige, Painter, Palacios, Parham, parms, patterson, pattysines, pal.vigurs, pavoni, payton, peacock, pelletier, penn, peoples, perry, etc...

I have not figured out this last method. It's to specific to be just random name generation rolling. I have thousands of emails that were like this as well.

There's evidence of the netsky virus being sent out on the same packets as his spams, I have proof that he was forging domains... to the tune of around 2 million bounced emails to a domain that I own and he forged. I have copies of all of his websites and printouts of the many, many forged names and addresses when he registered said domains under false contact information. I have proof showing in at least 4 occasions where his servers were also sending out (and sharing IP space) with a generic Viagra scam spam scheme. I have hundreds of emails showing him abusing the Geocities links, back when he would set up fake users on Geocities and have the homepage automatically forward to one of his hacked server sites. And speaking of hacked servers, there are the numerous addresses where he set up his spam sites on hacked in servers.

All that I have listed here I have documented proof of. Millions of emails, numerous websites captured, WHOIS printouts showing forged info and returned emails to the contact points, IP addresses, trademark violations, you name it... he's broken it.

He's too much of a worm to be paying anyone off. He just knows where the system's weak spots are and hides in the shadows.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 9/18/2006 2:49 PM Shane

Since Bob has definitely got several replacement sites already pre-registered and set up as instant replacements whenever one of his sites gets booted perhaps what we really need is a rapid reaction routine whenever his latest site is used.

I would estimate that there are some hundreds of people who follow this thread who would themselves be among the first to get Bob's spam. What can us less technical people do to help? Could we have a simple mechanism to report Bob's latest sites so that the more technical amongst us can expedite some action? Personally I am anxious to help, but don't understand much of the technical advice in this thread.

In summary, what can us laymen do to help?

What you can do is warn any acquaintances about Bob Soloway should they starting talking about 'email marketing'.

Giving Bob 'no money' would be much better. While Bob is pest he remains a pest since people give his spamware a go.

If you could spread that message and cut of the money then it makes Soloways proposition more iffy.

next stage is to check the whois for fake info say does a '(opsan:xyzzy)' exist if its a Soloway imaginary friend complion to network solutions about bad records.

Keep it civil though!

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 9/23/2006 10:00 AM DOG

Get this...

Soloway is spamming the website simplerx.com with all of his "standard addresses" at my domain...

I called the number listed at the top of the page to complain and they said they are affiliated with 8000 online pharmacies and this is not one of their pages, and the order does not go to them. I was told they are getting numerous lawsuits about orders that they never received and that were never sent.

So this web page is a scam to get credit card information and Soloway is sending the spam.

They were very interested in his details and I was more than happy to provide it to them.

We will see if anything happens with this, they promised to call me back. I guess this further proves that Soloway is a thief and criminal.

You can contact the WA Governor at governor.wa.gov/contact/govemail.htm and ask her why one of the worst spammers in the USA is allowed to operate so freely in their state, even though he (Soloway) is breaking Federal law.

I'm just as frustrated as you guys as I consistently get 4-5 emails a day to my admin address. Last week I went into my sites control panel and redirected all emails for "admin" to be sent to a spam folder so that they would never appear in my outlook inbox.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 9/28/2006 3:28 AM Rich

Don't know I am running send mail and I just had the admin account directed to no one so the emails would get lost in cyber space. Then good old Bob decided to go by way of sales and thus started spamming my root account. I sure would like to have his email adress.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 9/30/2006 6:05 PM Nick the nurse

Hmmm I am just amazed...If I am getting 4-5 emails a day and millions of other people are getting the same then the net must be really cluttered up with his crap. my spam filter works really well and I went to the expense of a good one so that I would'nt have to deal with these sorts of emails. There must be a solution that doesnt render having email so restrictive as to be absolutely useless. I think instead of trying to destroy Soloway, annoying as he is we should be looking at ways to foil his methods so that he cant bother us.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 10/1/2006 3:55 AM Bananas in the Falklands

Nick try by running a proper email server with blocklists and stuff. Bob commits many hundreds of computer crimes each time he spams and he knows this.

We do what we can to make Bobs life 'fun', so please sign up for spamcop reporting and while its not the total answer those whom wish to do nothing or take his money look continously foolish.

Or did you personally cull me>?

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 10/1/2006 6:09 PM jake

History on this thread indicates that it was typing in the URL he is currently harassing me from is probably what got my post cut, since the other onw went up.

So, a brief recap of my previous post:

Bob's making me mad. I tolerate spam, but this spoofing of my addresses is making me irate. With several domains, I am receiving sometimes dozens of these "joe job" mails each day.

I wrote a PHP script that loads his site. And loops. It's not a 'bot' per se, or a DOS attack. It's more like the ultimate "Whoops my finger got stuck on f5". :) I ran it overnight on my cablemodem.

And the new thoughts:

Sadly, he's on a slow server. If he's got any reasonable host, the bandwidth I managed to use over a span of several hours (~50MB) will probably not impact his allowance in any severe fashion.

As far as I know this should be legal but annoying. Especially with the "Robert Soloway's Latest Fan" user agent string. IT's not DOS, it's not any sort of bot and it doesn't hack or otherwise attempt to damage his site.

Anyone else want such a script, or have opinion as to potential effectiveness and/or legality of something like this as a harassment effort?

I'm sure he probably watches out here, as this seems to have become a haven for anti-bobbists. That's fine. My name's Jake for real and he has my phone number, he can call me any time. I'm SO GLAD to get a toll free number so that it costs him if I decide to put my "free nights and weekends" to use chatting with his answering system. Thanks!

Anyhow, hi nice to meet you all. I'm pissed at him too. I have a site that's about to go public, and it's already getting his mails. I've NEVER used it for anything, and I don't think it's ever been registered. How sick to have him working to crush my business before I can start it.

So I have basic php skills, some resources, and a desire to f@#$ with Bob to the extent that the law allows. And if he wants to try and charge me with anything like "harassment", that should be fine.

It's probably the easiest way to get him down here (arizona) for court, and sue for fraud, wire fraud, intent to defraud, CAN_SPAM violation, intentional misuse of my resources, and anything else I or my lawyer or anyone else can come up with. In fact, I know some sharks that just chased a case for my stepdad across the entire country (CA and FL jurisdictions) for about three years, for 50% on contingency.

The really nice part about that is that since it's how they get paid, these guys follow through. If they don't shove that judgement through collections, they don't get paid. They can't afford to drop it with a judgement that will never be paid.

Nice to meet you all, and I hope to enjoy 'working' with you in the future.

~Jake

Hey Jake
Can you write a script that can pull the from:admin@mydomain.com from the mail logs and take the IP it is using and add it to the tarpit in iptables? If we can get enough people to use it we can at least start waking up the admins of these hacked boxes Bob is using.

No, I'm not that experienced.

But I'll be looking into what you mean.

I'm just about to get my first actual (well ok, virtual) server, so all of my email is not under my own control right now. It sounds like that might be best done as a shell script or maybe something on your particular email server, though. I make my living on Windows, and I'm just starting to learn Linux.

hmm, might be easy to do in Outlook scripting, but I generally don't use Outlook for my personal email. If I'm bored at work this week i'll look into it. Not directly into any server iptables, but to a web-accessible feed and/or page of some sort.

Wait, aren't there commercial companies doing that now?

It looks like Roberto might be a good reason to start learning some more "hacker-ish" skills real fast. Or for that matter "cracker-ish". I don't mind harassing him a bit (i've got another 10 MB of his page in the last couple of hours), but I'm too shy to check his site for sql injection or other childish vulnerabilities at this point.

As i stated earlier, he has my full name and phone number. I have no interest in being nice or gentle, just legal. Love to meet you in person, Mr. Jackass Soloway...

From what Bananas has posted, it looks like he is probably working with half-a$$ed software in every direction. He's arrogant and careless. I wonder how often he's hacked.

If his "client list" got a message containing their own credit card details as well as those of his other customers right from his server, I have a feeling the general public's level of interest would skyrocket.

How embarrassing. I wonder what his 'disclosure' would sound like, or if he'd take it on the chin for failing to do that, too.

Hi Jake, my name is Shane, how are ya. I am sure that everyone here would love to meet Robert Soloway. Not long after my company created a website, we started getting his emails. Our security has thrown their hands up because their is nothing we can do about it. Also, legally, you are allowed to harrass him if that's what it takes to make him stop his childish games. The courts will rule in your favor, in fact, in favor for all of us if he presses charges on any of us. They will not punish anyone for his actions. Personally, I just want this to stop. I am afraid that my company may lose money to this loser (if we haven't already done so). As for everyone else, has anyone come up with any new ideas to stop this loser?

So much for things being quiet. Just got a huge batch of his spams and promptly forwarded them to the WA Attorney General, Geotrust for trademark violation, and a few other locations.

Latest sites:
broadcastemailingagency.com
broadcastadvertisenow.com

Whenever anyone sends a spamcop complaint to hdcatv.com they should be sure to add in abuse@hdactv.com to the complaint. You should then get a canned message with a case number from HDCatv (HiNet Customer Service). Be sure to click on the link for the customer service and leave a personal message explaining exactly WHO is on their servers and is using false information when creating the domains. It made a difference!

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 10/12/2006 6:07 AM DOG

I no longer get the notification of hdcatv cable as a reporting option... It only gives me this... rokso_sbl40270@devnull.spamcop.net

I see that Soloway had has started backup his "Genieric Viagra" spam business. This was traced to him on at least four occassions in the past.

Yea, I agree that hdcatv is a sewer, and most of the main servers from China are breeding grounds for bacteria like Soloway. Which is why I was so surprised when they actually sent me a response... even if it was canned.

an someone post the phone number list again?

I've spent about 15 minutes combing through these threads, and I can't find it. I want that toll free number again.

I got a new kind of treat from Robert today, and I would love to call and talk to him about it.

Or his machine, it doesn't matter, as long as he is paying for the call.

Hey, do 800 numbers take international calls? Is it more expensive? If anyone knows, I'm interested. I feel that leeching at his bandwidth is probably entirely ineffective.

Anyways, if anyone has that list, or can remember where in these threads it was linked from, I would greatly appreciate the help.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 10/15/2006 10:39 AM DOG

(206) 223-1270 ext. 10 or a tip from someone says that ext. 15 will get you him directly. I have tried it and got his personal voice mail. Not sure if this is true but rumor has it that this is his cell phone 206-226-9558

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 10/15/2006 10:58 AM jake

Thanks Dog.

I've left messages at both of those numbers this morning.

I'm looking for the 800/866 number. I'll find it, but I've gotten distracted. My first post had a URL and was deleted by the bot here, but I had made a script to repeatedly load his web page, in an attempt at something in between leeching and DOS. Nothing powerful enough to take down his site, but just to leech his bandwidth.

Well, it was frustratingly slow, and I've abandoned it.

Lacking any actual email to set my forwarders to, I think I'm going to start forwarding all of his spams to his buddies in china, or something.

Meantime, I'm gonna whip out the PHP today, I think.

I want to write a script that will repeatedly complete and submit his sign-up form with invalid information. Flood the database, as it were.

I'm now getting a ton of "normal" spam that must be coming to him.. It's coming to the same addresses as the Joe Job mails, and none of these addresses have ever been used, much less posted anywhere.

Right now I'm coming here to remind myself that I'm not the only one suffering for this bleeding bastard's complete lack of respect for his fellow man.

Thanks for posting the numbers again. I actually got the cell number of off your site this morning. Have you listened to his message lately?

"You know who it is... Leave a message"

Arrogant prick.

Hey Jake,
When you complete that script and want to post it I'll be glad to run it for a while.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 10/15/2006 6:10 PM jake

Pretty much all of the latest batch is for MyCanadianPharmacy, but they all use different hostnames in the URLs. These are "normal" looking spam in that they come from various addresses and mailbox names.

I got seven "joe jobs" using my own domain names to sell me services from broadcastemailingagency dot com.

I got two rejected email notices from other people's mail servers saying that "my" spam has been rejected. This is the most irritating thing. One of these domains is my family name, and has never been used to sell or promote any sort of product. Now, it is being spoofed as the sender of SPAM. For this alone, I would love to break his fingers. NOT, of COURSE that I would ever knowingly take illegal action against him from a distance or anything "threatening" like that of course. But I'm not sure if I could control myself if he was right in front of me.

I haven't spent any time on that script today, I've been halloween shopping with my kids. I'll work on it tonight, but he has a captcha type field in use, and if I can't get around that, none of it will do any good.

If it works, I'll make it available.

Well one nifty part aboout filling out the order form is that you get the following address to contact:

thebroadcastemailcorp@mailshack.com

Further research shows that while mail to <random_Address>@mailshack.com returns a rejection in seconds, this mailbox seems to be accepting email. I think I'm going to send some unsubscribe requests just in case he actually checks that box.

I found it at toastedspam.com via bananas page.

I bought a fun new domain tonight. Actually, I couldn't resist the special from the registrar, so I added on a couple of TLD extensions at a discount to "protect my name". BIZ, INFO, and NET to sum them up.

So now I have a link behind my name here you can all have a laugh at. I'd love to irritate him enough that he actually makes an effort to take it away. I haven't made a real site for it yet, though.

Comments from Robert Soloway:

I've been reading these posts and have found them quite entertaining,
although unfortunately nobody here is aware of the true facts of the
matter at hand.

Unfortunately, the injunction was filed improperly with the court.
There was never a request for an original injunction requested in the
original court complaint papers, so the injunction is invalidated upon
notification to the court, (as it will be invalidated next week, and
hopefully braver will be sanctioned potentially criminally, not just
civilly for his misuse and abuse of the court system.)

In regards to money, there is no money to collect. Microsoft has
already spent much of this year trying to collect $8,750,000. How much
have they collected? $0.00. Ask them yourselves if you do not believe
me.

Of course thanks to various sources, I will always have financial
resources to pay any and all legal fees as needed and live as I do for
the rest of my life, which are completely unobtainable as they are not
mine. I do not own any assets, property, vehicles, anything, which has
been proven in the Microsoft case in their collection attempts over the
past several months.

Braver is welcome to attempt to collect as well, but unfortunately his
endeavors will yield a fruitless tree.

I donate most all of my money to charity per se the purose of emails
sent out, and benefit countless non-profit charities and worldwide
non-profit causes for non-commercial, non-relationship and
non-transactional purposes as that is the purpose of the emails sent
out as specified. I just donated $500 to hurricane katrina red cross
relief efforts the other day and will continue to donate to charity for
the rest of my life to assist others in financial need.

Unfortunately the injunction was not properly pursued and actually is
legal malpractice which will be immediately overturned next week, since
the original complaint never mentioned anything about a potential
injunction.

The entire case will be on appeal for years and new legal
respresentation retained and the injunction will be found invalid,
already done and confirmed, along with a countersuit against braver and
his company for extensive damages.

One must not follow the media or what they see as fact. By standing up
to Microsoft for 1 1/2 years, I think it should prove apparent I am
very familiar with the legal system and very familiar with this case as
well.

It is apparent that braver is not a lawyer, as the injunction was never
part of the original complaint, so thus cannot be awarded in the
default judgement as fact. Any lawyer with any simple knowledge of the
legal system would never engage in such legal malpractice and
non-compliance.

Unfortunately braver, did just that, and his lawyer Michael McKee and
himself will soon learn from their costly mistakes. Michael McKee,
braver's lawyer might actually even lose his legal license for his
legal malpractice in regards to this case.

The case relating to braver in washington and his company will be
beginning in the state of washington very shortly, as his slander and
libel against me, saying falsely that I have victims has negatively
affected my personal and future business life, which can potentially
cost me millions, if not tens of millions of dollars, as it comes up on
search engines. And for future employers, this can potentially ruin my
business career for the rest of my life.

All I can say is.. everything has now fallen into place with the
default judgement and malpractice injunction. I sincerely wish braver
the best with his company and himself and sincerely hope that he has
already secured the best and most expensive possible lawyer on retainer
in the state of Washington, as I have done in the state of Oklahoma.

Take care everyone, and be sure to donate as much as you can to
non-profits worldwide to help others in need.

Yours truly,

- Robert Soloway

It only costs him 25 cents a minute every time that you call but think it would be if every victim of his illegal spamming called him!

His latest scam spam site, complete with forged WHOIS registration data is at permissionemailcorporation.com.

Considering that he does NOT have permission from the email owners to sell their addresses and falsely claims them to be opted in, it's kind of ironic that he is now calling it permissionemailcorporation!

Sky fwiw: broadcastemailingagency.com also down (no dns)

Bob oh my! permissionemailcorporation.com chuckle - next ? the ilovesendingspamemailcorporation ? by Robert i like your humour.

The whois on permissionemailcorporation.com is interesting as lui feng name (when he was in china) is still beiing used and nan chang 21002 JX, China seems here to be very dodgy whois.

Robert it appears is living in China and has changed his name to Lui Feng is that a he or a she?.

Hosting by some stupid americans too in america at www.managedsg-inc.com 205.209.128.0/18 is the cidr (thats arin not apnic).

permissionemailcorporation.coN and emailadvertisinginc.coN are both back online. New IP address of 211.155.132.226 is listed for both of them. China of course. The IP 211.155.132.226 is one of his main servers overseas. It's assigned to Beijing Haidian Broadcast & TV Netowrk Information Co. Ltd

Wikipeadia has also been noted about Psycho Bob's misrepresentation and false claims of their trademark.

I tried filing complaints on Soloway's latest domains with InterNic (forged domain registration) but someone here beat me to one of them! LOL

And that noose just keeps getting tighter and tighter, eh Robert?

I also saw where China joined the International Anti-Spam Pact. Looks like NutjobBob may have to find another rock to crawl under one of these days. Russia perhaps?

broadcastemailingagency is assigned the same IP address as the others listed above: 211.155.132.226. Shut that IP down and down go most of his sites.

The emailadvertisenow crime scene is currently at 218.11.17.231 which according to GeekTools is assigned as part of the CNCGROUP Hebei province network (hey, they got "network" right that time!)... send complaints to the black hole at abuse@cnc-noc.net.

I'll make sure InterNic investigates the forged domain registrations of those two sites. I've also made copies of both sites and WHOIS data for 'reference'. Thanks for the update Bananas!

Wikipedia has been notified about the false statements regarding their firm on Soloway's sites.

It appears Bobby is going full steam ahead with multiple websites and increased illegal spams.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 11/23/2006 9:34 AM sky

ED -

The spammer Chris Smith lived about 10 miles from me. Like Soloway, he got cocky and thought he was untouchable. Smith even was dumb enough to try and set up a contract to get one of the witnesses killed - right from the phone in jail. I have a friend who lives down the street... they took a backhoe to Smith's yard!

Smith and Soloway are like twins. The article statement: "Jurors agreed Smith was not very likable — calling him cocky, overconfident, calloused and a "dirtbag." Smith flaunted his wealth, bragging of offshore accounts...."

Is exactly ol' Bobby, even to the point of the offshore accounts. His own rantings stated this more than once (ref Rokso's website).

I've never been able to tie Soloway directly to actual prescription drugs, but we have tied him to at least four websites that were directly connected to him that were peddling pills (thanks to the postings on this blog). Soloway got cocky and started hosting his HGH and 'generic viagra' sites on the same servers as his email scam site. This was proven on at least four locations. The key point here is that they are just over the counter crap that he's claiming will work the same as prescription drugs. Again, a loophole.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 11/23/2006 10:11 AM ED - friend of DOG :-)

Yep - See what you mean. As I was reading that article, I felt deja-vu creeping in at every sentence.
Even down to thinking - Wow ! - Sounds like one of those "Twins - Separated at Birth" gags :-)
You're right, he does think he`s completely untouchable. However, I feel that the net is closing in.

In regards to Rizler,

I read that article and he wasn't even charged or convicted of any "spam" related offenses?

The Rizler case has nothing at all to do with spamming or spamming related activities.

Basically he was a drug dealer, just like anyone peddling cocaine on the streets and was punished like one.

The media seemed to hype this up as a spam case, for I don't know why.. due to the fact that this was an internet related case maybe?

Thanks Ed! I saw your hello above...

He has turned everything up, including the phishing mentioned.

You learn something new everyday, today I learned just how deep boobie is in to the scams and stealing from honest people.

Sooner or later! I was told that as a kid over and over, then over again. It will hold true in this endeavor.

Bananas, perhaps you should have a discussion with his mother about how to raise a child with values/morals?

Never mind, that may be asking too much from a boobie.

All - Page updated, all those hosts look like China back to usual haunts in China - This comes from the bbc website, aptly describes our comrades in China.

For about 20 minutes the Chinese side impressed their guests with slick presentations, and a deluge of facts and figures; everything from the number of trees being planted, to the treatment of Olympic sewage.

The presentation complete, the group of Chinese officials sat back smiling, confident that the foreigners had been suitably impressed. But Ken and Seb clearly hadn't read the script.

A look of panic came over the officials faces. Why were these foreigners asking questions? Hadn't they been listening to the carefully prepared presentation?

For a few minutes the officials floundered and waffled, before the meeting was brought to a swift close.

For Seb and Ken it was lesson number one in Chinese bureaucrat-dom, official information is there to be consumed, not questioned.

if you can find ommissions tell me

All those IP's are Boobyballs playing musical dns as per my posts above. Details also at Bananas ITF site.

Rev Beergoggles is tracking them, as they come on / go off line :-)

See his nanae post at:-
tinyurl.com/ybnbl5

Also you can check out the whole current list on the Rev's website, from there.

Soloway has reduced himself to not only spamming, but now he's posting on blogs. Check out what I came across... he's flooding his junk at BestNewportBeachInfo.com. Or better yet, a quick google of "email advertise like this to 8,000,000 people this week for free" brings up dozens of sites.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 11/28/2006 1:52 AM Fresh Batch

I had a talk today with a friend of mine who is a police officer and the topic of spam came up. I mentioned Soloway, along with all the other spammers out there.

Apparently there is so much crime out there in the real world and especially in cyber crime and identity theft, that essentially prosecuting for "email" related offenses is not even considered.

Essentially what he told me, was that there is a 100 times more probability of Soloway being sent to prison for "J-Walking" across the street than "Spamming" related offenses.

So here we are, 1 1/2 years since this blog started:

1) Soloway has his domains now lasting for months longer than they ever did before.
2) Soloway has more over five hosting options for his domains to ensure zero downtime.
3) Soloway has raised his price 3-fold, which shows he is making more money than ever.
4) He now has the resources to send out more email than ever before, and is sending out much more than he ever did.
5) Soloway apparently is judgement proof and doesn't have to worry about any lawsuits
6) He is approaching his 11th year in business with his web site being upgraded for the next 10 years apparently.

..And now to top things off, apparently law enforcement does not have the resources, nor do they care about spamming related offenses, so essentially it's hard to admit it.. but what can we accomplish here?

Is it put up the white flag? Any ideas are welcome, but for me, things look pretty grim. I think we have lost the battle against this jerk.. :(

Fresh Batch - the wars not lost, just a change of tactics and if some fool apparently should pay more for the spam list maybe his costs have gone up ?

anyhow with the herbalife link and other stuff i think Roberts in the corner not us.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 11/28/2006 10:58 AM sky

1- Soloway is now registering domains under false names and addresses, in the past he was bold enough to use his own name... now he hides behind fictitious faces and uses obscure registrars.

2- Soloway has been reduced to those 5 hosting options, at one time he was at least 4 times that much, using Korea, CZ, China, France, and numerous USA sites.

3 - A print out of one of Booby's old sites from exactly 1 year ago (yes, I make copies of his sites) shows his spam package was $149 for 2,500,000 email addresses. Today's price is $195 for 5,000,000 names.

4 - He's sending out less than before. In the past I received 30-50 per day of his spams, now I receive much less.

5 - Ignoring judgements does not make him immune from the law. When Soloway publicly boasts about hiding his assets overseas it just sparks the interest of the IRS. (Hey Robbie - ya ever hear of form 3949-A?) - Heck, look how they had to finally had to bring down Al Capone.

6 - It took at least 4 years (that I know of) to finally bring down the spammer in Minnesota; Chris Smith, and in the end justice won. Soloway is dumber than Smith, his trail can easily be traced. He's now getting sloppy and pig-headed.

His spamming to me started about 18 months ago. From what I've seen from then is a poor excuse for a man who has been knocked back to smaller and smaller rocks to hide under.

And now more and more information is being brought to the public eye showing how Soloway is NOT selling opted in email addresses, how he ruins any legit business that is naive enough to fall for his spam ads, and the complaints all over the web are piling up more and more. Any person who now buys from him is either a fool or a criminal as well. And their sites will get blacklisted as spammers as well. White flag?? HA - How about raising a toast to everyone here who stands up against crime and slime?

Hi BITF,

Possibly you might also remember them from:-

tinyurl.com/ym8zxn

Sightings and variety thereof - seem to speak volumes too !

If not "friends of Booby" - they appear to be at least sympathisers to his, shall we call it "dubious" business models and ethics !

Bananas - All those "temporary" IP's for emailadvertisinginc.com above, are from the revolving botnet list:
revbeergoggles.com/spammers/botnets/haufna.biz.txt

abusing compromised systems all over the world.

The TTL is set very low for all the NS's and a staggered lookup at:

dnsreport.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?domain=emailadvertisinginc.com

will allow you to see them as they change.

e.g. current list is now -
70.130.186.127
70.219.91.137
62.107.143.234
69.47.55.16
213.138.228.130

Every time you refresh, you`ll get a "new" list, as well as a new reporting address for the compromised systems, when parsing through SpamCop.

I think the NS's at haufna.biz are the ones to target. That of course is easier said than done, given that Gandi and YOURHERBALLIFE.INFO is involved :-(

Ed Understood - my snapshot includes ips from China, USA, and Spammy India, theres a large ahem 'update' on the page.

At least things are less wacky than monday - regardless of the changes if we can link him to other scum and villany then we are getting somewhere.

Its a point of view.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 11/29/2006 9:55 AM sky

Not less whacky here - I've received 20 of his standard "email advertise like this to 8,000,000 people" spams just this morning, and it's not even noon.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 11/29/2006 11:27 AM Bananas in the Falklands

Sky - by non whacky i mean I'm getting a dns result without having to to turn to dns report /etc web site to find it. It might change but im getting an 'a' record. Thats progress rather nothing.

Ed - yes it looks like i shall be inserting HAUFNA.BIZ in the file, arent Gandi a reputed indian spammers registar ? if memory serves.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 11/29/2006 11:46 AM atg

Bob's site is still up but no IP addresses are showing up. Spamcop is not reporting to anyone. Neotrace shows a bunch of IP addresses but they all just say the same thing when you go to the IP: Restricted site.

Has Bob found a way to fool the antispam sites?

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 11/29/2006 12:41 PM Bananas in the Falklands

atg (why do you bother?) - this is the dns magical mystery tour land where things change but probably point to the usual suspects.

this means that

a: china wants the hosting cash, not the hassle
b: provided (china) is not doing the dns then they remain 'anti-spam' in chairman mao speak.*

things will either remain this way, or the chinee will accept roberts dns handling again, or things shift to spammy india.

* the fact the chinese registered the .com is no admission that they like spam, only that the chinese still like money.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 11/29/2006 5:31 PM Fresh Batch

Sky,

While your enthusiasm towards going after soloway is well merited, the fact is, we lost the battle long ago.

The spammers are getting bigger, stronger, making more money and becoming more powerful, and law enforcement is overloaded by 1000 fold with other more serious crimes on the net, such as identity theft.

Spam is up 110% in the past year and it appears to only be getting worse.

And even if something happens to Soloway, there will simply be another 100 of these parasites to replace him within hours.

Like I said, I think your intentions are good, but the fact is, Soloway is probably laughing at us all.

One of his sites goes down, and another two pop up, minutes later. I mean.. what really is the point?

I'm sure thousands are larting along with us, and he knows exactly what's involved in the game. It's unfuriating, and I honestly don't see us going anywhere..

In terms of him bragging about hiding assets and not paying taxes, I seriously doubt he was dumb enough to say such a thing or do such a thing when he is so high profile. Where did he post that, if so, I would love to see it so I can send a copy to the IRS?

Also, Rizler had no spam charges filed against him. He had drug charges filed against him, like the millions of people caught selling drugs. The only difference the media took interest is because it was internet related. As far as I am aware, he was never charged with single spam related offense.

He may have people in China registering domains for him as well, which isn't illegal, and his prices on his site are apparently $495 and up now, I remember it used to be $97.

And in terms of hosting, from looking at his rokso record, he has been through 20 something web hosts and i'm sure he has another 100 at his disposable.

He obviously isn't hiding, and his rokso shows he is leaving his full information. He obviously has nothing to hide and has done the same thing since 1996 according to the rokso report.. so I don't know what he is getting more sloppy about.

And in terms of emails, i'm getting ALOT more at all my webmaster domains than I ever did before.. of course they are all filtered out now.

I'm not trying to defend the slime, i'm just trying to show you to be realistic.

You have good intentions, but like I said, the reality of what is happening speaks for itself.. he's prolly laughing reading at all of us not being able to take him down..

If anyone has any alternate ideas on how to stop him, I would be glad to assist, but this current route seems to be going absolutely nowhere.

The district attorneys don't care, the FBI doesn't care, the police don't care, law enforcement doesn't care, and global spam is up 110% in a year... things definately don't look good for us..

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 11/30/2006 1:47 AM sky

Chris "Rizler" Smith never sent spams directly. He hired companies to do his spamming. Companies that illegally harvested email addresses and used viruses and open proxies to advertise for him (hmmm....). His business was a major player in the criminal spam world though, and a victory for all of us who are sick and tired of this sort of illegal garbage. Folks like AOL have gone after him in the civil court on that matter, and by the way, Smith's days in court aren't over. There's more charges pending.

Soloway boasts about his assets and how they are untouchable. You see his names on SEC holdings, you can find some of his earlier posts where he lists himself as a non-US citizen and also with an address of the United States Minor Outlying Islands.

How can you say that you are not hiding? Out of the 20-30 websites that were used within the past year by NIM, how many were actually registered under the correct name? (zero?) Anyone can register a name using any name and address, all they have to do is check a box stating they are telling the truth.

NIM has been reduced to forged domains, Chinese servers, and customers that you don't exactly see in your local mall. Last year he proudly listed himself on Network Soloutions accounts, this month he's Lui Fei of Xia Meng and bouncing around the web thru botnets because his sites can't stay up long enough to receive an email otherwise.

Soloway's corporation (UBI 6024226472) no longer comes up on Washingon's corporation database. So much for the "NPR Corporation" name, much less LLC protection.

The Washington AG is VERY upset about spamming - they recently had to revamp their site and remove the ccrcman@ address because of spammers.

Maybe you are right - we should all just give up. After all, I received another Soloway spam right when I was typing this response. <GRIN>

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 12/1/2006 9:23 AM sky

Emailadvertisinginc.com down - Bob "liu fei" Soloway is no more. This site is not even loading. Botnet no longer workie number 1 Robbie? Neotrace showed the domain pointing to 85.224.153.124 (location Stockholm).

Pile of spams received today was for advertisingemailcorporation.com. Liu Fei Soloway is now liu feng! He's reduced back to the "Beijing Haidian Broadcast & TV Netowrk Information Co. Ltd" location at 211.155.132.206.

Spamcop sends complaints to blackhole at hongde@hdcatv.com. Be sure to also include complaint to go to abuse@hdcatv.com. Still a blackhole but at least I get a response from there.

Spammers cuddling together. Now Robert Soloway is also on this IP address, and the DNS is partly done by an IP address under control of the Polyakov gang.

www.theemailbroadcastingcompany.com is a nickname for theemailbroadcastingcompany.com
theemailbroadcastingcompany.com has address 58.83.0.247

theemailbroadcastingcompany.com. 2D IN NS ns1.optinemailcorp.com.
theemailbroadcastingcompany.com. 2D IN NS ns2.optinemailcorp.com.

ns2.optinemailcorp.com. 2D IN A 58.83.0.247 <- this record
--------------------------------
* Ref: SBL47267

221.194.111.55/32 is listed on the Spamhaus Block List (SBL)

221.194.111.55/32 is listed on the Register Of Known Spam Operations (ROKSO) database as being assigned to, under the control of, or providing service to a known professional spam operation run by Alex Blood / Alexander Mosh / AlekseyB / Alex Polyakov.

This is interesting - is anyone else getting these spams?...

I "feed" Robbie's unsubscribe page specific email addresses from time to time. The addresses and domains are unique... they have never been used before much less existed.

Then I monitor the address just to see what comes in. And today I had a hit on one of them.

There's a bunch of charity fraud spam for some jerk site called savechilds.net. Has anyone else out there receives this spam within the past week?

I just fired off the spams and a complaint letter to the usual crowd, and included their credit card processing company.

A strange bob like whois on that 'charity' domain , dns now points an ip now that dont route (from here anyhow)

Its within the bob charity sphere - but not something he's not been featuring recently

Sky glad you can confirm too that 'unsubscribe' just dont work, thats (at least) two of us who kept records.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 12/8/2006 6:39 AM Ace

Good,

savechilds dot net is from him. Proven.

I will save the 10 of them I received yesterday.

Sorry Ace, either I didn't notice your original post or we both posted the same time. Looks like you get first billing on the charity scam identification though!

Using orphans to con people out of money... what a class act. That's got to be a new low.

Several issues worth mentioning:

The credit cards for this latest con was being processed by a company called dms-secure.net out of NJ. It would be really interesting if the merchant number of Soloway's NIM matches up to this same credit card processing firm.

The email addresses of the charity fraud site are as follows:
vince_stebbi@hotmail.com
and
Tech: adminspeed123@126.com

What I find curious is that these addresses are also tied to:
allourshowtime(.)org
ONLYHGH(.)ORG
webdraws(.)com
bestwebmix(.)org
bestthingstosee(.)org
bestbuysleadto(.)org
bestcyberseries(.)org
attentionesaleon(.)org
bestbuytoklick(.)org

... and that's what I could find at first glance.

OnlyHGH is the winner here, as I'm sure you all have received his spams from that site as well. He's got a long history of connections with his HGH drug spams.

Webdraws was sited by a Russian company for sending out a series of viruses. Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Delf.awg, Trojan-PSW.Win32.LdPinch.azf, Email-Worm.Win32.Scano.bk and Trojan-Proxy.Win32.Xorpix.ar.

This is starting to get really ugly. But at least the savechilds site is dead as of today.

Oh my this really is becoming way too much fun (although not normal soloway domain area)

I wonder if Rachel Soloway wishes she had that abortion instead of him (or it) ? so what did Rachel say to her son Robert recently? oh to be a fly on the wall

She could have adopted an orphan. Oh well.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 12/8/2006 6:52 PM sly sky

Oops, a Freudian slip of the username. Should of just been "sky" on that last post.

The email addresses that were placed on Soloway's unsubscribe page yielded subsequent spams for drugs, his generic Viagra and HGH hormone spams, and even a few of those stock market pump and dump scam spams. Tsk tsk Robbie - the SEC frowns on that sort of activity.

And today's spams that were for his default Newport business showed some of them originated from a Hotmail IP address.

Classic.

It just keeps getting better and better.

OK - my (I'm a bit busy currently)to do this stuff but like all the other stuff its ready to go as soon as i get some time.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 12/11/2006 1:29 PM Ace

I called and talked to this guy "Sean" at Superflo. Yes, he actually answered his phone.

He seems very sincere and wants to help, but does not have a clue about what bot nets do or how virus infected machines are causing this.

Guess you can call him a newbie without a clue!

He said he would check his machines, guess that is all we can ask for...!

Or maybe this is just a front he is putting on... I made the mistake of asking him about spamhaus and it sent him through the roof... Sounded like Morris on a rant. So I think he is sincere, just ignorant.

Soloway loves it when there's noobs in the IS department.

Ace -

Does ServerFlo know the details of exactly who Soloway is? The damage that was done to their server's reputation will take a long time to mend.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 12/12/2006 5:43 AM ED - friend of DOG :-)

Hi Guys,

Rather than just a newbie or ignoramus, I think Serverflo/Sean must be perfectly aware of who/what they/he are and have been hosting. Take a look at www.spamhaus.org/SBL/listings.lasso?isp=serverflo.com 67 SBL listings - including many ROKSO and the Top-10. - Some achievment for an apparent newbie !

It's almost a year since 22-Jan-2006 (listing 67/67) - and Serverflo have also hosted Solowank several times during that period. They are currently #2 at www.spamhaus.org/statistics/networks.lasso - have been for a while, even warranting an entry on theregister.co.uk/2006/11/14/spamhaus_worst_spammer_list/

Anyways, the earlier nanae quote regarding Serverflo from Steve Linford at Spamhaus, puts it nicely :-)

"Wow, ServerFlo, don't we know you well. We've had a *ton* of SBL listings for your tiny network.

Your miniscule network has had an absolute *ridiculous* level of abuse. You are one of the top-10 worst spammer hosts in the world. You are the
absolute botnet and proxy hijack slum of the Internet, all in one small network. How you can still be operating I don't understand.

Now here's a question for you ServerFlo:

Spamhaus has had SBL listings for almost *every single IP address* in your /20, here they are below. Lot's eh? See what each one is for?
Now my question: Spamhaus has NEVER, not ONCE heard form any customer at ServerFlo, not even one little "Hey you're blocking mah legit botnet C&C"

Do you actually have any legit customers at all? We sure could not find any there. Not a peep of a customer in sight.

Here is your SBL record, it includes the LIVE botnet gangs you are still hosting. Read each one and tell us again how "maybe it was a legit
customer and Spamhaus is wrong to tell you to terminate them": " .... Followed by a whole lot of Serverflo IP's ...

The complete (long) thread begins at tinyurl.com/ygq39y - of which the above post is included !

As for Sean fixing his machines/botnets etc., seems he has a l-o-n-g way to go judging by - groups.google.com/groups/search?q=serverflo&start=0&scoring=d&

IMHO - Steve's question "Do you actually have any legit customers at all ?" just about sums it up. <challenge> Can anyone find one ? </challenge>

Ed

Interesting batch of spams received this morning. What's REALLY interesting is the email address they were received has only received emails from only one other person in the world... SOLOWAY.

The emails were as follows: "Cheapest child porno FOR FREE! Get it NOW!!!"

So now besides prescription drugs and stock market pump and dump scams, Bob is now into kiddie porn?

Anyone else get the spams for this Russian site?

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 12/20/2006 12:44 PM DOG

He is working directly with the Russian gang and they trade (traded) lists...

# Soloway Spam? 12/21/2006 2:31 AM Uncicorn

Hi there..

Okay, I really don't know how to explain this without being able to show you, but here goes..
Emails about stock trading and things, and always a colorful main advertisement message, usually using black, red, blue, and green font. Then underneath it is several smaller, black print nonsense messages.
Do any of you recognize this spam I am describing? Because I am getting dozens and dozens of return failure bounces back to my email address all with the original message being in that way I described.
All the emails are advertising different stocks, but they are all obviously sent by the same person because they all follow the same format; Big colorful words usually along the lines of "Trade Date: ...
Company: ...
Stock: ...
Category: ...
current price, Recommendation, expectation, Rating etc etc.. Then a short advertisement message telling you to take advantage of such a great opportunity. Then at the bottom, a lot of plain text sentences that don't make much sense" Get the idea?

Anyways.. it is not me, of course, who is sending out the spam. The sender is just using my email address as an alias to put as the "from" address in his spam emails. How or why my address is being used for this is beyond me. But that is the reason why the failed emails are all coming back to my inbox. And this has been going on for months now, and I am getting dozens of these email failure bounces daily.

So basically, I just have a hinkering suspicion that this guy Soloway is behind it, and I was hoping that if any of you guys recognize the spam messages I'm referring to, maybe you will know if it's Soloway or not who is behind my little problem. If not, maybe then someone can help me figure out who or where the spam is originating from. It makes me sick to think that crooks like bob are out there completely screwing innocent people, getting rich off of it, and then getting away with it too!

Thanks for your time, and I really admire and appreciate your guys' dedication to stopping this guy soloway..

Any and all comments & suggestions will be much appreciated. Thanks!

Unicorn You are being Joe Jobbed, whether our pet spammer is doing this to you would depend on what nameservers hes using - and is there a link that could point to other spammers.

This is outside of my Robert remit However if you can prove a link to serverflo (see link), or to an nameserver that robert has used, or a host in china, I'd say that narrows down your person to about three.

Once you know that well apart from knowing i doubt you could do much about it.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 12/24/2006 10:47 AM sky

Bob is involved to an extent with the pump and dump spams. I've received several to specific accounts that only he knows about. Though he's probably doing so indirectly, as he really doesn't care who he sells our names to.

And like Dog pointed out - he's now trading lists with the Russian spam gang so this means we're all due for the lowest demeanor of spamming.

Hence the spams that we're seeing that include child pornography, illegal drug spams, stock fraud, fake orphan charities, and even bank phishing ID theft spams, of which I have received on email accounts that have only been spammed by Soloway himself and his "business".

The stock pump-n-dump spam I received this morning (on the address that has only received emails from Soloway over the past year, and was created specifically to do just that) is for GDKI.

I doubt if your Joe Job is directly tied to Soloway though. And if it's like the other cases I've seen it'll probably end after a short run.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 1/2/2007 8:58 PM sky

Anyone else getting Soloway's latest spams advertising his email lists? I've been getting them with a $15 invoice statement included.

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 1/3/2007 3:18 AM Bananas in the Falklands

Sky sounds interesting - Ive got some spamcop reports to add (8) but its been nice and quiet here.

As soon as im 'in control' i will update my file Seems like if i get your meaning then Roberts appears a bit subnormal upstairs if hes doing what i think hes doing.

Then again we all knew that anyhow

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 1/3/2007 4:08 AM Bananas in the Falklands

Sky Correction invioce numbers appears are a new soloway tracking method, spam run offers 3 million or sme other million figure

Update soon

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 1/3/2007 5:28 AM Bananas in the Falklands

Final thing from me

Page Update up and can anybody give me dates when emailadvertisinginc . com was 'up*' from and to over the christmas period ?

* assuming that the dns fun and games worked.

# bob 1/4/2007 8:59 PM unicorn

I've been getting the invoice one too. Actually, I've been getting quite a few lately; More than ever. Like 3 a day now. He also stopped including the charity bit he usually has in his spam. Looks like old bobby is getting desperate

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 1/5/2007 7:11 AM Bananas in the Falklands

It would be interesting to check if the invioce number / track method changes works.

Since Ive yet to get one, and have only seen spamcop reports (id unknown) it would be nice to see that there is some consistency to my 'thinking'.

Can anybody whos had more than one invioce email to the same email account confirm or deny this that the invioce numbers are consistent in both or more emails.

Thanks

# Soloway's fake invoice scams 1/5/2007 11:53 AM sky

I'm receiving about 3-10 a day. Every one of them has different invoice numbers, even the ones that arrive in batches.

The spam (and considering he's sending false invoice statements constitutes fraud) is pretty short and the headers are the same as his old method:
______________

spam body as follows:

[my email address was listed listed here] Invoice #: 90223 - TOTAL: $15.00
We Email Advertise Your Web Site to 9,000,000 People

VIEW TRANSACTION BELOW:
<<Soloway's website listed here>>

______________

The invoice numbers are always 5 digits and are not in any order. Today I received his spams showing invoice numbers from 60000 to 95000, yesterday it was 07000 to 96000, the day before was 31000 to 97000.

# A simple way to irritate the little punk 1/8/2007 9:36 AM RS

A simple way to irritate the little punk is to fill out his order form with BS info. Load his BS web site with BS sales entry forms. His forms do not validate and of the fields so you can type whatever you want in any of the fields, there is nothing the shithead can do about it (right now). As of December he was only taking AMEX cards which tells us that he lost his ability to run MC/VISA cards due to a large chagreback rate. If he can't collect money maybe he will go away?

# re: Robert Soloway and SPAMIS: New Thread (20060525) 1/9/2007 11:05 AM DOG

That explains the increase in spam from about 100 to over 400 a day in December...

Looks as if he is trying to regain some lost money! Mum should have slapped him before Christmas.
