This shortURL address was REMOVED for SPAMMING

Please do not email us asking to be removed!
We did not email you and can not have you removed from the spammers list as we we are not in collaboration with them. We have done all that we can in preventing this spammer from continuing (read below). Most likely they had no plans to honor your removal request anyway -- and requesting removal may have only verified that your address was active and led to future spammings.

Who's responsible for the email you received?
ShortURL is a URL redirection service providing free website addresses. Someone created an account with us to redirect to their real URL -- hiding behind a shorturl address in attempt to become more anonymous and add credibility to their otherwise long and less appealing address. Just like any internet service provider, spam abuse prevention is an on going effort and not 100% avoidable. We do not tolerate the use of shortURL’s in spam (unsolicited messaging) of any kind. The use of opt-in/out lists is also considered spam by us and most other web service. When someone spams a shortURL we are notified immediately by recipients like you and take immediate action.

What action have you taken against this spammer?
We immediately notify the spammers webhost, their advertisers, email providers, ISP, and anyone else they are affiliated with and continue to follow up on these notifications until we get a response. We file a spam report with spamcop.net and who also notifies all the parties mentioned above and documents the case.

We file a report with: www.SURBL.org who's list we also use in preventing known spammers from using our service. We will not tolerate the abuse of our service!

Our No-Spam policy:
A shortURL member is only permitted to promote their shortURL address via email if it is an Opt-in list that the recipient has knowingly opt-ed in to receive a newsletter or updates from them exclusively. You, the recipient, must have opt-ed in when visiting the same website.

For clarification – email recipients can not be from a shared or purchased email list – even if the owner is claiming the list is opt-in. We consider these lists spam.

You would be hard pressed to find a large list of email addresses of people who knowingly asked to receive junk mail and have their address shared with anyone who thinks they would be interested in their products or service. It’s also hard to know whether opt-out requests of such list providers is honored.

We also will not tolerate the spamming of other mediums such as instant messaging, chat rooms and newsgroups.
