IT'S ABOUT *FUCKING* TIME DONTCHATHINK?! - G
A U.S. judge has handed down a jail sentence to a US spammer recommending that he stay behind bars for nine years. It is believed that Jeremy Jaynes, 30, with the help of his sister, Jessica DeGroot, 28 (who was fined only US$7,500), peddled non-existent products via email such as a "FedEx refund processor" that supposedly allowed people to earn $75 an hour while working from home.
This allowed the siblings, both based in Raleigh, North Carolina, to amass a fortune of $24 million.
Jaynes is known as one of the most prolific spammers on the Internet. His sister, DeGroot, used her credit card to purchase domain names that he used to send the illegal messages. The two were convicted of sending over 10,000 unsolicited e-mails during each of several 24-hour periods between July 11 and August 9, 2003. The charges do not reflect the much larger number of actual spam messages the two sent, because prosecutors based their charges only on messages reported to AOL from users.
