With the recent news of Craigslist shutting down their adult services I went to check to see how our fellow gfy moron running his Craigslist spamming operation was doing. http://www.craigspimp.com

Was that Eddie Temple (MatrixFactor) ? If so he owed me money that I wrote off.

Yes it was, he owed many people money and had the gall to keep coming back here trying to recruit new spammers. Even when Craigslist finally took legal action against him, he scoffed at it as if he was untouchable living in Canada.

Interesting way to close a site...

WHOIS shows that Eddie Temple still appears to be the owner, but the redirect makes it look like craigslist owned him.

It's odd how a part of the name is copyrighted, not even the whole name.
"Craigs" from craigslist is copyrighted and "book" from facebook is copyrighted.
What's going to happen next? "Mc" from Mcdonalds will be copyrighted?

Hmmm, you have a point, I noticed that too. After doing some searches it appears this took place a few months back. http://craigslistscammers.com/blog/?p=424

His blog hasn't been updated since last fall www.eddietemple.com and his forum is dead www.shadydollars.com

Here is the legal filing for copyright infringement, but can't seem to find what the outcome was. Maybe he finally just redirected it and caved in, even though he seemed to spout off that they had no case. http://www.rfcexpress.com/lawsuit.asp?id=50951
