I think the FTC bounty program is supposed to be put in place by the end of this year. It's been said that it will offer 20% of the penalties collected to the person providing information to the FTC.

The CAN-SPAM law allows for fines up to $6,000,000 USD

With one referral most people could retire....





So are you going to sign up for this hot new referral program?

I think it will be hard for them to shave since the payoffs should be of public record. And the BIG ones will be highly publicized no doubt.

That would be so much fun...

We would be very well positioned to become the king vigilantes...

cool

I wonder how crazy this is going to get though.

Back in the witch hunt days, they basically labeled people as witch or sorcerer so that they could kill them and take their land and money. Friends and neighbors of these "witches", either stricken by poverty or greed would turn them in for similar commissions.



Corporations with money could easily be set up by employees wanting to cash in.

Will that be a valid excuse to get off the hook?

"One of our employees did it without our knowledge or consent..."

I guess it will depend on who you are.

So who do we report info to? Anyone know?

Hmmm will this result in a lot of people crying wolf?

[axelcat]

Wow this program is the highest paying indeed

[pornguy]

The major problem is that they will revert back to the witch hunt days in the trials..

In salem someone would accuse a person of being a witch and they would take the person into custody. to find out if they were guilty or not that would dunk them into water or burn them at the stake. If they lived, they were a witch and there fore put to death. If they died, then they were innocent.


Same thing will happen here.. There are programmers that are so good that they will be able to cover their tracks, and put the blame on someone else. That person most likely will not have the money to defend them selves, and end up screwed...

Yes. You dont get all of the money they collect.

First of all, the government is not an injured party and therefore should have
no right of action against the senders of the message. The injured parties are
1). the recipient(s) and 2). the ISPs that the message traveled through.
However, the government always wants to receive any monetary forfeiture that
comes about in these actions.

Second, is stupid and assine to burden the taxpayers with costs of bringing a
prosecuting these actions. When private litigation takes place, one party always
loses and another wins. In most cases, the loser pays for the reasonable,
customarily and documented expenses of the prevailing party. Litigation is
expensive and time consuming, so only a fool initiates litigation wildly without
first evaluating his chances of prevailing both at trial and at collections. In
a government prosecuted action, the people pickup the cost of the litigation if
the Defendants are insolvent or manage to dodge the debt.

The United States Government has a very long, documented history of wasting
incredible amounts of money with no positive results. Americans pay about half
of their checks to the government in one form or another to support all of this
wasteful spending and we are still running in the red. I'm not sure about you
all, but I do not like paying taxes and I do not favor large government or a
nanny government that wipes my ass for me and gives me my bottle at 7 AM, Noon
and 5 PM.

I believe very firmly that litigation of this nature (spam, faxes and
telemarketers) should be initiated only be private parties at their own expense.
By doing so, we ensure that people sue with care and intelligently because I
dont know of anyone that runs off to the bank for certified checks in the
amounts of $100 or thereabouts for a filing fee just for the hell of it.

Nearly every state law allowed a private right of action against the sender for
presumptive damages and furthermore made the process easier by not requiring the
plaintiff to prove actual damages took place, only that the defendant engaged in
the unlawful conduct.

The CAN-SPAM Act is a horrible piece of legislation that hopefully will be nullified by the appeals courts since Congress no longer represents the people. It takes away the right of private action against the spammers.

Im a kazzzionair as i have millions of fucking spams from all over the shop. lol
want leads lol

[goBigtime]

It is kind of witch-hunt scary though...

It would be fairly easy to frame someone they don't like as a spammer & try to collect the bounty.

Espeically when you consider that half the people on the internet are infected with various viruses.

I have a feeling it wont be a free for all kind of program though... you'll probably have to jump through some hoops, register & qualify as a bounty hunter.
