Commercial Spam

Some time back I enquired about a test ride on a BMW motorbike. I had to enter an email address. Since then I've been receiving regular spam from them (info@worldofbmw.com). Yesterday I received yet another and tried the 'unsub here' link (to try it). Being a good Microsoft house, they seem unable to hack VG, I saw

Microsoft VBScript runtime  error '800a01a8'

Object required: 'conn'

/content/unsubscribe.asp, line 30 

I became even more cynical when, after reporting this to webmaster@worldofbmw.com I didn't receive an answer, just another copy of the spam. I then tried abuse@worldofbmw.com and yes, you guessed it, yet another copy of the spam.

When will these people realise that their 'marketing message' to their eager customers isn't seen as that by some of their 'customers'. And no, I wouldn't go near them.

btw, I received no response to my request for a test drive. Which just about sums up my current feelings for BMW.
