It should also be said that HansaLeads are playing games with biz reg. The original (12 Aug 2014) HansaLeads Oy has been renamed Lead Management Lauttasaari Oy and only Christian Owen Gates is still formally involved. The new “HansaLeads” is the former ER-Suunnittelu Oy, formed in 1984, that did not do any business worth mentioning last year (grand turnover of 15k€). I expect the current sole board member Jani Pomell and vice member Pauli Pajula to be proxies (suomeksi: bulvaani) with no real connection to the business. The former(?) director of sales is trying to make himself disappear from public view because his history as a convicted conman is catching up with him. The fact that the cartooney above has been sent by a legal office whose grand old man has been convicted of aggravated tax fraud and disbarred is very reassuring, as well.
Edited 2018/01/18: In December 2017, HansaLeads Oy changed its board again. Now the sole board member is Mauro Iuliano, who is somehow hard to find, but also appears as the vice member of the board of Auto Magnum Oy, a used car dealership in Vantaa, fronted by Gian Mario Calcagno, another rather invisible guy. Their accountants at Tevilex Oy, when asked for any hints on how to contact their customers, went completely mute.

What a match made in heaven.
When in doubt, go to Pakistan. Filip did, too.
HostEurope are taking their sweet time terming this spamming IP from “Pakistan, Finland”.
It looks a bit like Hansaleads might be getting desperate. The week that is about to finish, they had managed to sell services to three companies: Stark (a construction supplies chain), Uudenmaan Peltityö (a sheet metal works) and Sokeva (a vendor of surface treatment tools owned by the Finnish Federation of the Visually Impaired).
All of these were informed by phone of the fraudulent practices of Hansaleads. They were not happy campers. Common themes: “Excuse me – I have to call my CEO right now.”
Some of them had not yet paid the bill when the spams had already been sent out and were therefore instructed not to pay it either. I suppose that’s gotta hurt – and may be why I have been receiving anonymous phone calls from unlisted numbers recently. After all, they’ve got a history of doing that, even though in August 2016 it was Mr Conman himself, almost openly, at least calling from the number that is attributable to him. (See previous post.)
More new Hansaleads customers in the first half of November:
And of course Hansaleads themselves spamming to advertise their spamming services.
This week’s catch:
Fortunately at least the latter said that they had not agreed to advance billing. Hansaleads Oy / Sender Oy tries this on everybody. Don’t agree to it. Better yet, don’t agree to doing any business with them at all.
Nordic Sales Crew Oy (as seen in the LinkedIn profile of Riikka Marsh) is Hansaleads too. Biz reg, people responsible.
You’ve got to be fucking kidding me right?
Today,
This is SendinBlue, a French ESP with a solid Terms of Service and record of ending spammers’ contracts rather early.

Today,
Dudes. Really. You make me laugh.
Do the needful, Timo.
Caught again on MailChimp, this time taking with them Bring, the courier services of Norway’s national post office.

Yesterday, Kantar TNS (listed on the Suomispam DBL, along with their Danish ESP since 20180423) made the fab mistake of spamming a Hansaleads-sourced list from their Danish ESP eMailPlatform.

Hansaleads has told Bisnode to remove their listing from Yritystele dot fi. Fortunately the same type of information continues to be available from other sources.
