This morning we have started receive an abundance of spam from Wiltel customers, pointing boldly back to websites hosted in Wiltel space.

Messages to abuse@wiltel.com are being rejected.
This phone number goes to their "conferencing group", which doesn't know what 'abuse' is, or even what an IP network is.
I went through 4 levels of management, and was informed that they no longer had an abuse team -- that this was disbanded in a recent reorganization.
In short, it would appear that Wiltel is now selling pink contracts.
Or perhaps there's a more reasonable explanation like being assimilated with Level3 and perhaps some contact info. is a little stale at this point in the merger process... Never attribute to malfeasance what can be explained by everyday corporate beauracracy. Andrew Cruse
