So i live in Albania where there are some companies that spam for money. Basically people are uneducated and pay these guys to send spam to albanian email addresses including mine.

One company is this : http://ederstudio.al/marketing/email/ (google translate: http://translate.google.com/translate?sl=sq&tl=en&js=n&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&layout=2&eotf=1&u=http%3A%2F%2Federstudio.al%2Fmarketing%2Femail%2F&act=url)

He actually advertises on his site that the email will not hit he spam folder, security bullshit and other stuff. The customers can actually login on his control panel and send the mail themselves.

He sends the emails from <random_string>@emailcenter.al . One email that was sent to me: http://pastebin.com/fCzVPJZJ

The local police won't do anything. Contacting the guy directly won't help, he knows it's spam and gets payed.

I actually have spoken to this guy on the phone because a client of mine hosts his website there.

Any idea? Thanks
