You're right Gabe there certainly is .
If I was getting spammed after Opting in somewhere I wouldn't be upset , but some asshole is spamming me ten fold this week and there is no way the guy can show me an ip stamp and time for my optin in .

I design for WEG , and haven't a clue what goes on in the mail department ,
BUT I'll tell you this , of all the hundreds of spams I have recieved NOT ONE has been promoting a WEG site, so that goes to say something .
And if one did come from WEG I would've posted it here just the same .

I'm not attacking the program , I'm trying to make them aware of what their affiliates can cost them . Doing it here just forces them to do something about it .

The other sponsors I have talked to about this keep saying stuff like " oh I'll have him remove you from his list " Meaning they know full well the affiliate is cold spamming and they don't give a shit .
