its sad not only 1) because it shows people are buying from spammers and it means they'll keep spamming because of it, but also 2) because the article basically spells out like 3 or 4 of the people who bought the pills! "The president of a California firm that sells airplane parts and is active in the local Rotary Club ... " Yeah, how many of them do you think exist? Well world, he just bought 6 bottles, he must be tiny! I wouldnt be surprised if he shot himself! :crazy:

An investigation (registration to Salon.com required) last month revealed that Bournival's mentor and business partner is Davis Wolfgang Hawke, a chess expert and former neo-Nazi leader who turned to the spam business in 1999 after it became public that his father was Jewish.
It is quite the group of ppl.

Among the people who responded in July to Amazing's spam, which bore the subject line, "Make your ***** HUGE," was the manager of a $6 billion mutual fund, who ordered two bottles of Pinacle to be shipped to his Park Avenue office in New York City. A six foot Afghani with diabetes, who is the son of a powerful construction company owner in Cairo. The president of a California firm that sells airplane parts and is active in the local Rotary Club gave out his American Express card number to pay for six bottles, or $300 worth, of Pinacle.
