Once AOL identified the New Hampshire Spammer, he decided to cooperate with AOL. The spammer's cooperation, while helpful, didn't absolve him from paying for the harm he caused AOL members, and under CAN-SPAM, AOL was able to seize everything the spammer made during his "career." The result: AOL got the spammer's fully loaded Hummer H2, as well as a hoard of cash and gold bullion.
Thanks to the use of the "Report Spam" button, AOL has an unbroken record of success in dozens of lawsuits against some of the nation's most prolific spammers. Working together with our members, we've forced junk e-mailers to turn over their assets, including cash, gold bars and a 2003 Hummer H2 sport utility vehicle.
To show our appreciation for helping AOL fight spam, we're offering an opportunity to take back these these ill-gotten gains. You can also register for a chance to win $1,000 in daily Spammer Cash prizes by answering an online-security trivia question each day during the sweepstakes. Remember to come back every day until August 19 for another chance to win.
