mrmaxx Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Is there an address similar to "webcomplaints[at]ora.fda.gov" for Australian-owned websites? I've got one persistent spammer who's domain registration gives an Australian address (NSW, to be more specific.) Is there an Australian government agency that would care about someone selling prescription drugs (viagra, etc) w/o a prescription? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wazoo Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Even I admit that the thing is just too huge ... I normally refer to it just because not only is 'the' answer to a query there, but all those other links to questions not thought of yet. But yes, the general gist of the newsgroup jumping is that I'm "supposed" to be pointing to a specific entry, rather than 'go take a look' ... a recent thread 'over there' included "can't find the answers in Help and I'm not good at Google searching" ... the response to "check out the Forum/FAQ" was originally "been too busy trying to learn how to report" ...???? some days I just hurt all over <g> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmaxx Posted June 22, 2005 Author Share Posted June 22, 2005 Related question -- any suggestions for reporting websites registered to UK addresses? I've got one spammer who's registered the domain name to a UK address. I know that for the US it would go to spam[at]uce.gov, and Australia has it's own address.. what about the UK? SpamLinks doesn't have anything for the UK in general... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
