eBusinessAppraisals.com: Offering “Business Evaluation” Services to a Spamtrap
eBusinessAppraisals.com, a company that offers appraisal services to online businesses and commercial web sites, approximately two weeks ago began to send bulk advertising emails to an email address that was closed in 2003. Since the domain eBusinessAppraisals.com was first registered in 2010, the only two ways that I can see this happening are a typoed subscription or a purchased list. The ESP is Marketo.
