Thus, any phone call asking for "Dick Head" proves that the mortgage or credit company got this information from outoutforyouandme.com.
10/7/03 I received a call from Credit Counseling Express, asking for "Richard Head," which showed Credit Counseling Express' connection with this spammer. The manager said he would "look into it."
123awayoutofdebt.com, outoutforyouandme.com, and reducebillsandgetoutofdebt.com (see at right) seem to be the same organization. All trace back to Haninternet in Korea, which may have even shut down the first two domains (as of 9/6/03) for Internet abuse.

9/2/03 I received a call from Credit Counseling Express, from an individual who represented himself as Patrick McCarthy. He asked for "Michael Hunt," which showed Credit Counseling Express' connection with this spammer. He also defended the practice of spamming, stating that one can just delete unwanted messages, and he asked whether I had better things to do with my time.
9/6/03 I received a call from U.S. Credit Management, also asking for "Michael Hunt." Their person also was very indignant and suggested that I "just hit delete" (or the equivalent). He said he got this information ("Michael Hunt") from a "reputable" source from which he obtained numerous valid leads. I offered to E-mail him evidence that his source is a spammer but he wasn't interested, and he was upset about my "wasting his time." Well, the spammer from which he obtains his leads has wasted plenty of my time.
The following shows just how "reputable" www.reducebillsandgetoutofdebt.com is.

http://whois.nic.or.kr/ lookup of the IP address shows that this "reputable firm" has to find Web hosting in Korea, perhaps because U.S. service providers will take it down for Internet abuse. Haninternet, in fact, may have terminated two of this individual's domains (see at left) for Internet abuse. Furthermore, the spamvertized Web page has no telephone contact information or street address. Someone who has to business anonymously from Korea is obviously a bad actor.
