WWICS spam alert !

11-20-2003, 11:45 AM

I don't know what this group has done to deserve so many trolls and spams.

4 messages in one single day launding the "achievements" of WWICS - all
posted under different names but from the same IP.

You guys are defeating the purpose - no one is gonna be impressed by your
slimy tactics.

You jokers are claiming to have successfully immigrated to Canada via WWICS,
yet all your posts are from some city in Punjab (India).

Take your spam elsewhere.

The IP address is embedded in the newsgroup headers.
You can extract the IP address out of there and then trace it using any IP
tracker like whois or arin.

I don't think you can view the message headers using Google.
You will need a newsreader like Outlook Express, which is what I use.

Best regards.
