Clickback MAIL hitting dead/invalid emails
Clickback MAIL has been hitting spam trap with email addresses which have been dead for a very long time (i.e. years) or never valid in any decade. Probably because Clickback doesn’t require pesky things like “Opt-In” or “Confirmed” subscribers but do allow purchased lists and “cold” contacts to be mailed. Seriously this is bad behavior, I wonder why no one has just blacklisted all of Clickback IPs/domains yet?

This post marks the second anniversary of this series (which was not intended to become a series or any sort of regular occurrence in the first place). I’d like to take this opportunity to thank everybody who is paying attention and sharing these posts in social media, and I’m very much looking forward to meeting a significant part of you all in two weeks – that is, assuming that Finns with ESTA are still allowed in. 😀

This month’s theme is “Fake ESPs and Dyn”. Otherwise, it’s mostly the usual suspects, with the exception of AWeber making an entry at #10 with a make-money-fast spammer.

The theme of this month’s post is Dyn. There were indications last month that they were up’n’coming, but I wasn’t quite expecting them to make #1, definitely not with a 50% lead over the next contestant.
