Spammer faces decades in prison

mi writes: Between 2012 and 2015, Persaud used multiple IP addresses and domains to send spam emails over at least nine networks, including several servers in Chicago, according to the indictment. He sent more than a million spam emails to people in the U.S. and abroad, using false names to register domains and creating fraudulent “from address” fields to conceal the fact that he was the one sending the emails.

Each count carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison — personally, I wish it carried removal of 1 square millimeter of skin for each message instead.
