Russian scripters say NO, but any liberal wannabe Thurgood Marshall judge could easily extend coverage to this money maker.
Since these are so blatantly fake. Same with fake dating site profiles.

What's your spin?

And no, they can't make the current law fit that. It has absolutely nothing to do with bulk email.

Fake adult profiles with links to clickcash sites or pornsite landing pages. They generate tons of these and put them in the yahoo dating site, groups, mboards, tons of places.

That's true, since the profile is tied to an ID which is tied to an email.
