Subject: Abuse contact received

Thank you for taking your time to report this incident to our Security
Master. This is an automatically generated email message to inform you
of the receipt of your report and to give you more information about
how it will be processed.

Incidents are dealt with in the order that they are received and if we
are inundated with unique reports, then it may take up to 2 weeks for
your report to be dealt with. Due to the high number of reports we
receive it is not possible to provide feedback regarding the outcome
for
every report. Additionally, if 7 or more people have reported the
incident (not including any auto generated reports), it is unlikely
that
you will receive an email stating the action that was taken. The sort
of
incident where this would happen is, for example, public abuse in a
USENET group. Any incident that is held in a public forum is unlikely
to
yield an email back to every complainant due to the number of reports
of
these incidents.

However, this does not mean that your report has been ignored, and it
certainly shouldn't deter you from making future incident reports,
because it is only with the cooperation of our users that we can
effectively deal with those who would abuse our service.

If you feel that the incident you are reporting warrants involvement
of an appropriate law enforcement body then you must report the
incident
yourself. We will then cooperate fully with them as is appropriate
under United Kingdom law.

When making a report please ensure that you include the following
information:

1) Date and time of the incident (including time zone).
2) Source IP or domain (including full email or news headers).
3) Any logs that substantiate the report.
4) Full posting (if an email or USENET group abuse posting, including
the headers).
5) Anything else you feel would help (including details of any previous
incidents).

Once again, thank you for sending us your abuse report. Please note
that
this email address is for abuse issues only; if your email is of any
other nature your enquiry cannot be dealt with and you should contact
us
on 0845 140 0200.

What's the 'S' for?

Well done Einstein. By the same strength I'm on email terms with the
White House.

 

I was planning to send death threats but someone advised me against it.

 

That is not the end of the matter by a long shot. I know who I can
complain to, then that person's isp will have to take action. One by
one the offenders will dissapare.

<if they can't get an internet connection, they will know why>

Paging: Lushhead

Do you still have a connection?

 

I wanted to be planted in the grounds and told them that I was a bush but
they said that they had enough of them.

I bet it's a nice bush though.

 

what sort of stupid **** would do something like that?

 

#If I were a shopping centre, I'd sure be embarrassed.
#I know I'd never get a date with some cute little building, like from
Paris.

 

He's gone on his hols you silly boy.

 

It's a very, very nice bush.

 

Coo.

 

Tony,

HTH

 

I didn't remember anyone posting his phone number until now. I'll get
a few 'business' cards made up with his number on them and distribute
them wisely.

 

In uk.rec.motorcycles, Andy Bonwick amazed us all with this pearl of
wisdom:

Put it (and a brief message) on a few crisp tenners and distribute it
that way, too.
