Amusingly, this was sent to me *after* I replied to abuse@internap complaining about getting spammed.
If anyone else gets any unwanted contact from us, please let me know and I'll make sure it's taken care of.
Just my tinfoil-coated 2 cents: I tend to assume that when I get an email allegedly from Company A (Internap) but actually sent by Company/Domain B (iContact), inviting me to enter all kinds of sensitive information about my organisation's operations into a "survey" hosted at Domain C (Zoomerang), in return for which I may win a Dell laptop (but only if I give full identity-theft-enabling details about myself), then I'm being socially engineered by a Bad Guy, and I just press "delete". I do this, even when Company A is a big well-known company (e.g. Sun ... it's happened) or an industry magazine (e.g. Secure Computing .. ditto), cos lets face it .. who needs a Dell laptop anyway ;) I urge everyone else to just do the same (at the very least it may help to eliminate UCE merchants from the world).
