The U.S. Department of Justice has filed a criminal complaint against four Detroit based men under the federal Can-Spam Act, in the first case sparked by the U.S legislation.
According to court documents, the four men are accused of generating hundreds of thousands of different e-mails that hid their identities and advertised a weight loss patch. The e-mails were sent out under a variety of company names, including AIT Herbal, Avatar Nutrition and Phoenix Avatar, identified collectively as the Avatar Companies. The e-mails were allegedly sent to millions of e-mail accounts over the course of several years.
