There is a message circulating that Bin Laden has been captured. He
hasn't, but if you click on the link - you will receive some "nasty"
malware courtesy of Dollar Revenue located in the Netherlands.

Whatever possessed you to post the link that some unsuspecting viewer might
click?

Tom:

This a$$hole has been spamming his BlogSpot in numerous News Groups. This
subject matter is
certainly OLD NEWS. I have seen Social Engineering Usenet posts with viral
attachmnts,
concerning Bin Laden's so-called capture, since the 1st qtr. of '02. In other
News Groups
he just posts the BlogSpot and he NEVER responds to comments posted in reply to
the subject
matter posted in the thread he has created.

Basically I (and others) am fed up with his spamming fraudwar.blogspot.com so
please send
Full Header and Body abuse messages to...

groups-abuse@google.com
Support@Blogger.Com
abuse@sbcglobal.net

FTC ?

Why would you inform the Federal Trade Commission ? They deal with email spam
NOT Usenet
spam.
There has been no Federal law broken nor is any Federal action warranted.
