ASDW regulars, please forgive me for responding to the spammer but...
Hmm, let's see now - the domain name for the website that you're promoting that sells this [censored] is
registered to... let's see...
YOU!
That means that you've posted an unsolicited advertisement to a non-commercial newsgroup, which is
most likely against your ISP's TOS (Bell South I believe, isn't it?). BTW unsolicted commercial
email/postings = SPAM.
If you want to hawk your wares, look for a newsgroup labeled as "marketplace" or "ads". Otherwise
you have no business selling stuff in a non-commercial group. Keep doing it and your ISP will get
enough complaints ([email hidden]) that they'll terminate your account. Oh, and just to remind
you, Freeservers (where your website is hosted) has a ZERO TOLERANCE policy for SPAM ("Content that
has been promoted through the sending of unsolicited email"😉 and states that spammers are "subject
to prosecution to the fullest extent of the law". Those are quotes from Freeservers.com's TOS.

I see your website just went live (registered Jan 22). Nice fake phone number you've listed for the
website registration - I'm guessing the PO box of 1234 is fake too. What's the matter, don't want
your customers knowing where to reach you or who you really are?
Now you'd know that ads aren't well received here if you'd ever read this newsgroup. Wait, you said
you've posted here before. A quick Google search shows your first posting to this newsgroup (ever)
was to promote your website and product, although you have posted to other newsgroups over the last
2 years. And you say this isn't SPAM. Oh please.

Sorry you feel that way. I am not just an annoying spammer, I really have lost 143 pounds and just
wanted to make available a good product that is useful in this battle to lose weight.
If you feel my post not useful I am sorry, and will not post again

Wrong, you ARE just another spammer. Did it really cost £143 to post this spam?
