Fax Spam

gs39t · 2003-08-11 16:22:47

We have a fax machine that's hardly ever used. Anyway, at least 8 times today i picked up the phone to hear that fax noise, and eventually went and plugged in the fax machine - it rang again and out pops a f###ing advert for dell! :mad: Oddly enough it was addressed to me as the "IT Manager" ...... Yeah, im the IT Manager…

Yes from F***ing DELL, getting about 2 a week for the past month at home.

Our office is annoyed by fax spam especially from conference companies... we get the same fax through to 3 or 4 guys in the same office..
