Most Spammers and even the more legitimate ones use Thursdays as their Spamming Days. Have you noticed that you get the most Spam on Thursdays? Have you noticed you email box is 25% fuller on Thursdays? Why do spammers send so much junk and bogus email on Thursdays? Why? Well, like direct mail and newspaper catalog inserts they are trying to cause an action with the consumer to buy something and it works.

Nevertheless, I thought that the Federal Trade Commission promised to take a bite out of Spam? Well, do not make me throw up I say? The FTC? Why they cannot even protect their own employees from Identity Theft? How on Earth do you figure that they can stop junk email?

CAN SPAM Act, was essentially a disaster as the Federal Trade Commission turned it into a media circus and the Spammers ran right over the FTC and left them like road kill? The Federal Trade Commission is worthless in my opinion. Tell me can you name one thing that they have ever done correctly? Hmm? Come on; times up, see what I mean, I cannot think of anything either.

It is pathetic in my opinion and every time I look in my email box on Thursday Mornings more Spam. 25% more and you call this fair to the consumer? Consider all this in 2006.
