Q&A

1. What is Spam?

Spam is commercial email or unsolicited bulk email, including �junk mail�, which has not been requested by the recipient. It is intrusive and often irrelevant or offensive, and it wastes valuable resources. Spam messages are the opposite of permission-based email, which are normally anticipated, personal, relevant and/or associated with a pre-existing business or personal relationship. Inappropriate newsgroup activities, consisting of excessive posting of the same materials to several newsgroups, are also deemed to be spam.

2. Why are the hosting companies, webservers, and domain names companies so strict on spamming?

The Internet of now days is not the same as the one ten years ago, five years ago not even six months ago!

Due to the enormous worldwide popularity of the Internet they have had to severely crack down on any form of spamming. There are trillions now, daily, and as more people get in the web it is increasing exponentially clogging the email servers and keeping the good emails from coming through. Not only is the hosting company shutting down sites that have been found spamming (even if it caused but its members or affiliates) but the registrar of the domain name of that site is also acting accordingly.

Spamming is unsolicited email period. Buying those double optin names and mass mailing to them the mymoneyfish information without their permission is considered spamming.

If you must contact thousands of recipients you must do it through permission marketing. Prospects see a generic ad about ways on how to make money online (this is what is called a teaser, where you only state the benefits of the program you are promoting) and you invite them to request more info about it. They usually fill out a form in a capture page with their personal email and name requesting that you send them more detailed information on your offer. This triggers an autoresponder that will verify that they have asked for the information and once they confirm that, then and only then, they will be instantly redirected to the site of the program you are promoting, in this case My Money Fish site.

Never mass mail your my money fish url to people in your original email or contact with them. (they are getting so that they are even shutting down names that have been masked!) Also, never use any of the mymoneyfish or mymoneyfish system email addresses in any of your promo emails, nor the my money fish name or MMF.

Again, you must use permission marketing, as explained above. If you don't know how to do so, don't want to go through the trouble of doing so, then don't bother contacting those "double optin names", you will be instantly putting our site in jeopardy, your site, all our members' sites as well as our name. And you will be immediately terminated.

3. What is the �Can Spam� law?

Email marketing is super powerful. Unfortunately, many Internet Marketers abused this privilege. Believe it or not, Spam was one of the fastest growing industries online from 1999-2003. The Federal Government has stepped in and is working to end this.

As Legitimate Internet marketers My Money Fish applauds the actions of the US Government with the "Can Spam Act of 2003". All legitimate marketers are seeing an increase response from their marketing efforts, and the ones who had been ruining it for us could get heavily fined.

The Link below will give you a copy of the new anti-spam law that was signed by the President of the U.S. We have included a run down of this law; advise on how to comply, and our legal disclaimers on this page. We recommend you take the time to read before embarking into any mass mailing promotion.

Here is a brief run down of the new law:

1)	The law became effective Jan 1, 2004.
2)	It prohibits using or falsifying email header information.
3)	It prohibits the use of open relay to "deceive or mislead recipients" about the origin of a commercial email.
4)	It prohibits "harvesting," "dictionary attacks" and "spoofing."
5)	It prohibits commercial email without an unsubscribe process. Either a web link or return email address are acceptable for unsubscribing, you have 10 business days to process removal requests.
6)	It prohibits automated methods to sign up for free Web-based email accounts. (Like Yahoo or Hotmail)
7)	It prohibits registering for "5 or more" email accounts or "2 or more domain names" with false information and using them to send commercial e-mail messages.
8)	It prohibits sending "sexually oriented material" unless it includes a label to be created by the FTC. And, you don't have to do that if it is opt in. (Violations punishable by up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine)
9)	The FTC will be producing a report on possible mandated subject line labeling, such as ADV (required in CA) for advertising. As currently drafted, the Can Spam Act requires UCE to carry such information identifying it as an advertisement or solicitation but does not mandate any specific language.
