AOL starts raffling off spammer’s property, getcha some!

AOL is getting creative about giving away the goods they confiscated from a spammer with a contest that officially starts today: Spammer’s Gold Sweepstakes. Contestants can sign up once per day through Friday August 19, 2005.

BTW, I had to search through several major news outlets and blogs before I came across an actual link to the contest entry form here (thanks Claudiu!). On the radio earlier today I heard an interview with an AOL spokesperson that said a link to the contest was available on their AOL homepage but I sure didn’t see it anywhere.

Did this post make you go hmm?
