From a spam message header: newsletterbroadcast01.chicago.hostway ([216.36.215.222]. "2016 International Conference - CALL FOR PAPERS". Might be well organized and a good format if it wasn't for the fact that no one here asked that it be sent. The IP traces to Hostway Corporation, another firm that forgets to watch what their customers are up to. "newsletterbroadcast.com". If someone from the site owner wants to PM me on my board, go ahead. I went over your site, and didn't see a method of communicating with your abuse staff, if you have one. More spam, same employee recipient: "International Conference - Registration & Guest Speaker Info!!!" Message header: newsletterbroadcast04.chicago.hostway ([216.230.192.222]). Evidently blocking the address does no good. Loads of content on the message for no reason at all. if it looks like spam, guess what? Attempted to unsubscribe the employee, "Click Here To Unsubscribe". "Unsubscribe2016Email". Great! Just unsubscribed from email that has already been sent. Scammers, going RED.
