Subject: Re: Your AWS Abuse Report [52527875652]
I appreciate your timely response. The offending URL is https://keithgreer.dev/brian-burns-lost-highway-media-spam.
Mr. Greer is indicating on his public-facing website (hosted with Amazon AWS) that I sent him unsolicited spam emails, including one containing a vulgarity. That is not the case.
Earlier this year I discovered that some person or persons, probably overseas scammers, were sending out "phishing" emails representing themselves to be me and my company, Lost Highway Media. The senders of these emails apparently had a domain pointing to my IP address. I believe Mr. Greer received one of those emails; however, my domain is losthighwaymedia.com, and the originating email domain Greer is showing on his website, although redacted in red, is clearly not losthighwaymedia.com. I don't use email marketing, spam, nor any form of unsolicited communication - I never have and I never will.
The website Keith Greer has published with the false information about me and my company is coming up at the #3 organic position for Google search on my company name, Lost Highway Media, and obviously, that has the potential to be devastating to my business and my livelihood. I found an email for Mr. Greer through a Spokeo search, but cannot get a response from him regarding this issue (I have copied him on this exchange at that email address).
I'm not trying to cause hardship for Mr. Greer as I believe he did receive spam email(s) from someone pretending to be me or pretending to represent my company. However, since it is clear the email(s) did not originate from me or my business domain, I respectfully request that you either have Mr. Greer take the website down immediately or take the initiative on your end to deactivate the website's hosting account.
Your time and consideration in this matter are greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Brian Burns

I'm not having a tantrum, and to be fair, you're the one spamming people during their holidays.
I just want to establish how you got hold of my personal information, which I think is a reasonable request from someone who felt comfortable using it to send unsolicited email marketing.
I'm not American btw, this is a normal Thursday evening for me.
We can catch up after your holidays.
Happy Thanksgiving
Keith

It's Thanksgiving. Don't you have family or friends to be spending it with rather than having a kindergarten temper tantrum over an email and fucking with the person who sent it? I've removed you from my mailing list so you won't receive any more. Now go have Thanksgiving.

Can I ask how you got hold of my personal information?
Did you buy a spam list of unsuspecting victims or gather it off another website?
Thanks

Hey Brian
Why are you sending spam to promote your company?
It really doesn't reflect very well on your ability to increase my traffic if you have to resort to spamming random email accounts to get business.
Thanks
