    How blatantly obvious could you be?

    OK... so I opened up my email tonight... Somehow, one from CoolCat got through to my inbox... whatever... so I go to the unsubscribe link...

    I get what is below as the screen... could you be any MORE blatantly obvious? Or even STUPID, for that matter?

    Ugh... Wish I could get CAN-SPAM on these people.

    I NEVER click on any unsubscribe link in any spam. It just indicates that they have reached a "live" address, and increases the pricetag for your information, even if they comply with their policy and don't spam you for that particular casino anymore.

    Looks like a variable that gets replaced when the page displays - except someone forgot to define it, thus the variable name itself is displayed.

    It is a bit like the emails that sometimes start:-

    Dear &&firstname && lastname



    .......

    your account number is %%acct%%

    I have seen these plenty of times


    Perhaps they need more money because they have paid too many players
