Joe-Jobs by spammers

A common practice of spammers is to "joe-job" anti-spam domains, by sending out fake spam which fraudulently pretends to be sent to you 'by' the anti-spam domain. Spammers hope this way to get people to harass the anti-spam domain by flooding it with complaints.

Spamhaus Warranty

The Spamhaus Project warrants to you that what you received was not sent by the domain in question, but was sent to you by a spammer who wants you to think it came from the domain.

Spamhaus advises you to ignore this joe-job spam and not make any complaint to the domain in question.

Joe-Job against:	tekplex.net
Comment:	tekplex.net is being joe'd by a spammer due to the owner's association with anti-spam site www.spamreaper.org

spams are apparently sent with the subject line "Get FREE Internet"

Spamhaus guarantees these spams are not from tekplex.net
