I have received similar emails (not many) in the past from AT&T and other providers, but nothing recently. At the time I received the emails we were not doing business with AT&T either; I do find it annoying, it was not a big problem since it only happen a couple of times.

Lorenz Sent: Wednesday, April 14, 2004 11:17 AM To: nanog@merit.edu Subject: SPAM Directly from AT&T Data Networking So, with AT&T being a network provider at all, is it just customary for them to SPAM like this? This is the second one I've received from them. And I'm sure they didn't have my email address for legitimate purposes. If you ask me, this is rather shady for a network provider to be doing. -- _ __ __ ___ _| | William R.

Quick Question... I wanted to follow up on our previous email to your company and find out if you have any additional bandwidth needs. If yes, may I email you over our current bandwidth promo prices? In some cases we were able to get as low as $83 per mb. We also have full T-1s to the Internet for $676/mo including loop and bandwidth on a 1 year contract with free installation. If this email does not pertain to your department, will you please forward it to the appropriate person or simply delete it if you're not interested? If you don't want me to email our bandwidth promos, please let me know and I will not email you further. Thanks for your consideration!
