Report it to the Federal Trade Commission. Send
a copy of unwanted or deceptive messages to uce@ftc.gov. The FTC
uses the unsolicited emails stored in this database to pursue
law enforcement actions against people who send deceptive spam
email.
Let the FTC know if a "remove me" request
is not honored. If you want to complain about a removal link that
doesn't work or not being able to unsubcribe from a list, you
can fill out the FTC's online complaint form at www.ftc.gov. Your
complaint will be added to the FTC's Consumer Sentinel database
and made available to hundreds of law enforcement and consumer
protection agencies.
Whenever you complain about spam, it's important
to include the full email header. The information in the header
makes it possible for consumer protection agencies to follow up
on your complaint.
Send a copy of the spam to your ISP's abuse desk.
Often the email address is abuse@yourispname.com or postmaster@yourispname.com.
By doing this, you can let the ISP know about the spam problem
on their system and help them to stop it in the future. Make sure
to include a copy of the spam, along with the full email header.
At the top of the message, state that you're complaining about
being spammed.
Complain to the sender's ISP. Most ISPs want
to cut off spammers who abuse their system. Again, make sure to
include a copy of the message and header information and state
that you're complaining about spam.
