What really cheeses me off about this sort of thing is that the
service providers don't go out of their way to make it easy to
identify fraudulent use of their names (or do any kind of sane mail
filtering, for that matter) by looking at the source and destination
domain names in e-mail headers and URLs.
For example, four years ago I bought a then-new HP scanner. I
registered it, and gave them an e-mail address. Once a month or so, I
get this thing that says something like "Happy Halloween from HP" in
the Subject, was mailed from some domain name in p0.com, and has a
bunch of URLs with domain names in p01.com.
How the foo is J. Random Customer supposed to tell the difference
between this and an attempt to defraud or commit identity theft?

I just read a novel where Saddam Hussein was interrogating a Kurdish fighter
trying to get information from him. Saddam's solution was simple, In the
interrogation room there was a pulley in the ceiling and below it was a vat
of hydrochloric acid. He would slowly immerse the victim into the vat, toes
first, and, slowly continue. Needless to say he got most of the information
he wanted before the victim died. Regards - Mike

Very unlikely. The heat from the body would probably vaporize enough HCL
to make the atmosphere unbreathable and burn everyone's lungs.

Two great opposing forces are at work on the internet, total control and
verified identity, vs, anarchy and annonmenity (sorry spelling is not a
major force).
Unfortunately the same verified ID that would let me track down a spammer,
also would allow oppressive regimes to control internet content.
Struggle is good, spam isnt "that" bad.
