Pacific Lodging Supply: Selling Pool Supplies to Spamtraps

Pacific Lodging Supply, a California-based company that sells hospitality supplies to hotels and motels, is sending bulk email to two spamtraps. Neither of these spamtraps has previously received email from this company, so in the absence of two typoed email addresses (unlikely), I think that they probably purchased a list. The sending ESP is IContact.
