This SPAMMER even went as far as attacking an open proxy in
Holland! Tom Saylor also used SAIX.NET in South Africa, rmi.net,
videotron.net, verio.net, intnet.net, demon.net, multiweb.nl,
news-service.com, worldonline.nl, concentric.net, insync.net,
and @home.net to flood the USENET with his spam.
This is a true whack-a-mole spammer!
This spammer's websites are hosted by EXODUS.NET and
FLASHHOST.com
This particular SPAMMER is bad enough to have several web pages
devoted to his SPAMMING. Please see text version of web pages below,
so you can get a good idea of what you are dealing with!
Although his name is Tom Saylor, he probably used one of his
aliases to open this account.
In the last month, this Spammer has had accounts terminated at
several ISP's.
This SPAMMER is using your company as a throwaway account, and
will simply start another account at another ISP when you terminate his
account with your company. But at least you can stop the flood of
complaints YOUR company will recieve!
Please take action to stop this SPAMMER.
Thanks.

http://howardk.moonfall.com/saylorfaq.html
Tom Saylor's Forgeries FAQ
Q:
Who is Tom Saylor?
A:
Tom Saylor (a.k.a. Ursula Major) and his associates are currently
one of the most notorious Usenet (the newsgroups) spamming
operations. It is common for this organization to flood the adult
newsgroups with ads for Mr. Saylor's adult sites. Here is a list of some
of
Mr. Saylor's Adult web sites:
208.2.81.58 (click-through to Saylor's other sites)
www.acdcgirl.com
www.amateurgynecologist.com
www.amateursexphoto.com
www.asian-girl-erotica.com
www.backdoorgirl.com
www.bi-girl.com
www.bjgirl.com
www.black-girl.com
www.classic-erotica.com
WWW.flashergirl.com
www.female-sex.com
www.girlgirllove.com
www.girliegirl.com
www.girlielesbian.com
www.hipgirl.com
www.interracialerotica.com
www.lesbiansexfun.com
www.lingeriegirl.com
www.lipstick-lesbian.com
www.myeroticdiary.com
www.naturalgirl.com
www.plumpgirl.com
www.pregnanterotica.com
www.prettysexygirls.com
www.sassygirl.com

www.world-premiere.com
Mr. Saylor's ads typically contain forged email addresses and/or
forged domain names in the "From" line of his posts.
Q:
Why are these people picking on me? I never did anything to them!
A:
Mr. Saylor and his associates haphazardly pick domain names and
usernames for their ads with out regard to the fact that they are
legitimate. Do not take it personally. Basically, they do not care
who they victimize. They have been doing this for quite a while now, and
there is no reason to believe that they will change this behavior.
That is why it is important for you to act.
Q:
Is there any way to stop these people from violating my email
address and/or domain name?
A:
Yes. Mr. Saylor receives his bandwidth connectivity from NSI Web
(NSIWEB.COM/FLASHHOST.COM) in Farmingdale, NY. NSI Web in
turn, gets their connectivity from Exodus Communications
(EXODUS.NET) in Santa Clara, CA. Exodus has a policy that forbids its
customers from transmitting fraudulent information. Here is an
excerpt from their acceptible use policy (
http://www.exodus.net/about_us/policies.html ):
"Customer will not, and will not permit...
Intentionally omit, delete, forge or misrepresent transmission
information, including headers, return addressing information
and IP addresses or take any other actions intended to cloak
Customer's or its users' identity or contact information."
Make sure to send a letter of complaint to NSI Web, and Exodus.
Include a copy of the newsgroup posting (make sure to include all of the
headers) in your complaint. Here are the email addresses to send
your complaint to:
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
Also, you may want to send Mr. Saylor a personal note and tell him
that forging your email address or domain name must cease and
desist. You can contact him at:
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
Q:
Why should I bother sending a complaint?
A:
Having your email address and/or domain name forged is a serious
matter. Not only should you send a complaint to protect yourself, you
should send it to help put an end to this organization's abuse and
to protect others (many others) from becoming victims too.
Q:
Where can I get more information on this Tom Saylor character?
A:
Ed Falk has provided information about Tom Saylor at:
http://www.rahul.net/falk/quickref.html#saylor.
Also, subscribe to the news.admin.net-abuse.usenet newsgroup where
Tom Saylor is often a topic of discussion.
