Scott Richter Is Not My Friend
June 18th, 2008
For some reason Scott Richter can’t seem to take no for an answer. He’s sent me 3 requests through Facebook to be my friend and I’ve rejected each of them.
In case you’re not familiar, Scott Richter is the infamous “Spam King”, having paid Microsoft $7 million in a spam related lawsuit and most recently losing a judgment against MySpace for $6 million for sending unsolicited emails to their users.
Sorry Scott, but this is not the way to win over friends. I know that using this technique of mass contacting has made you a lot of money over the years but you need to rethink your strategy at some point.

Well said.
I’m not going to provide my contact details in case Spam King Scott Richter decides to flood me with emails for telling the truth about him. But he has tried to befriend me on Facebook over six times.
You are right, this guy, who boasts about his spamming exploits, just doesn’t know how to take ‘no’ for an answer.
