| Anti Spam Web
Analisten schatten dat 75% tot 80% van het e-mail verkeer in de wereld ongewenste commerciële berichten betreffen, beter bekend als "SPAM". Vele bedrijven en particulieren besteden steeds meer tijd en geld om al deze berichten op te schonen. Ook de verliezen aan machinecapaciteit binnen het gehele Internet zijn gigantisch. Spam kan erg irritant zijn en bovendien misdadig. | Sex, Drugs and Software Lead Spam Purchase Growth

29% of Internet Users have Purchased from Spam, According to New Research from Marshal
London, 19 August, 2008 – 29 percent of internet users have purchased goods from spam emails, according to new research by Internet security company Marshal. The most commonly purchased items include sexual enhancement pills, software, adult material and luxury items such as watches, jewellery and clothing.
Marshal’s research, which asked ‘What purchases have you made from spam,’ attracted 622 responses with 29.1 percent indicating that they had made purchases. The poll showed the proportion of spam purchases had risen when compared to a similar Forrester Research poll from 2004, which surveyed 6,000 active Web users and reported 20 percent had made purchases from spam.
“The poll highlights an inconvenient truth,” said Marshal Vice-President of Products, Bradley Anstis. “Many of us often question ourselves, why is there so much spam? The answer is, enough people are purchasing products from spam to make it a worthwhile and profitable endeavour for spammers.” | Spamklacht.nl - Het versturen van spam in of vanuit Nederland is niet toegestaan. Dat is de hoofdregel in de Telecommunicatiewet. Niet alleen ongevraagde e-mails maar bijvoorbeeld ook ongevraagde SMS'jes en faxen zijn spam. OPTA, de toezichthouder op de Nederlandse post- en telecommunicatiemarkt, handhaaft het verbod. OPTA treedt niet op tegen buitenlandse spam.

Op basis van meldingen van de ontvangers van spam werd onderzocht welke bedrijven opdracht hebben gegeven, welke bedrijven daadwerkelijk verantwoordelijk waren voor de verzending en welke providers een faciliterende rol hebben gespeeld. Een deel van deze analyse werd gepubliceerd.
Door ons onderzoek hebben we een goed overzicht van de spam die verzonden werd door Nederlandse organisaties.
