Email Industry

Things that make you go “Hmmmmm”

Ken Magill has another article up on EmailAppenders.

What I find interesting is the “Devin Juan”/”Prakash Kotian” angle. Apparently this person is writing to people reporting on the EmailAppenders/Javelin Marketing incident trying to get articles critical of EmailAppenders removed.

The emails quoted in the article are also interesting because they appear to make some accusations which may be related to the dispute between EmailAppenders and Javelin Marketing. Namely, the “person who promoted this press release is already black listed and cheated many people” part.

Now, perhaps Juan/Kotian was referring to some insurance/annuity industry blacklist that I know nothing about. But, one common result of spamming (as Javelin appears to have done at least as a result of the list purchased from EmailAppenders) is being listed on DNSBLs. That’s a practice commonly referred to as “blacklisting”. Which may mean that EmailAppenders is using the result of the use of their list in order to denigrate their dissatisfied customer.

  1. I'm the guy that was scammed by Emailappenders. After they took $14,000 from me and I spread their name all over the Internet, they sent me a settlement for $10,000. I signed it and you know how much they sent me? ZERO. Emailappenders is not to be trusted not only for their lack of quality product but their stupidity. I gave them chance after chance to return my money and now the bad press has easily cost them $250,000 in business. They are unethical and also brainless. It's just a shame how ignorant these people are.
