If you’re coming here because you received spam from a perton.com address, I’m sorry. But those messages did not originate here. Seems I’ve been joe jobbed. That is, someone has “borrowed” the perton.com domain to send spam. Technically, this isn’t really a joe job, since I don’t think I’ve been targeted as an individual. I suspect the spammers just chose a random domain. However, the results are the same: my name is tarnished, and you’ve received still more spam. So, go ahead and contact your ISP, and the ISP of the spammers. But, please, don’t try to get this domain black-listed. I use it for my personal email, and once the spammers move on to the next one (pertom.com? qerton.com?), I’d like to still be able to do so.

I don’t know if this is something to be proud of or not, but I just discovered that I’m actually on the Blogebrity B-List. Looks like they picked up everyone on the WIN “Lead Bloggers” list, since they’ve linked my name to Download Squad.
