Spamhaus
Leaving a wake of over 12-years of criminal spamming and trillions of sent junk emails behind him, long time ROKSO listed spammer Alan Ralsky is finally behind the walls of a US Federal Prison. After pleading guilty to multiple federal criminal charges, and after time extensions to “get his affairs in order”, Ralsky reported to FCI Morgantown in north-central West Virginia on March 1st to start serving his 4-year, 3-month sentence.
Spamhaus, on behalf of the world’s internet email users, gives thanks to all involved. Big thank-you’s to FBI Special Agent Tom Winterhalter, U.S. Attorney Terry Berg, AUSA Julie Beck, USPIS Postal Inspector Karl Hansen and IRS Special Agent Marta Jacks. Over the course of a three-year investigation and prosecution, the investigation & prosecution teams were able to identify and convict 9 domestic and international members of this spam & fraud conspiracy, including Ralsky and his associates.
