Here is an observation about people who send out emails about their particular opportunity, product and program: It seems that NOT everybody in the United States is adhering to the "CAN SPAM ACT of 2003!" see following requirements and note the ruling with the image beside it in particular:
Here's a rundown of the law's main provisions:
It bans false or misleading header information.Your email's "From," "To," and routing information – including the originating domain name and email address – must be accurate and identify the person who initiated the email.
It prohibits deceptive subject lines. The subject line cannot mislead the recipient about the contents or subject matter of the message.
It requires that your email give recipients an opt-out method.
You must provide a return email address or another Internet-based response mechanism that allows a recipient to ask you not to send future email messages to that email address, and you must honor the requests.
You may create a "menu" of choices to allow a recipient to opt out of certain types of messages, but you must include the option to end any commercial messages from the sender.
Any opt-out mechanism you offer must be able to process opt-out requests for at least 30 days after you send your commercial email. When you receive an opt-out request, the law gives you 10 business days to stop sending email to the requestor's email address.
You cannot help another entity send email to that address, or have another entity send email on your behalf to that address.
Finally, it's illegal for you to sell or transfer the email addresses of people who choose not to receive your email, even in the form of a mailing list, unless you transfer the addresses so another entity can comply with the law.
:rolleyes: It requires that commercial email be identified as an advertisement and include the sender's valid physical postal address. Your message must contain clear and conspicuous notice that the message is an advertisement or solicitation and that the recipient can opt out of receiving more commercial email from you. It also must include your valid physical postal address.

Why would anyone want to promote their ad campaigns "anonymously" ...IF, they are truly running a legitimate business operation? ...
Do you REALLY believe that hiding behind "Anonymity" IS the best way to gain someone's trust? ...
How about you?
Would you be willing to Join under a person who DID NOT bother disclosing their FULL Name, Physical Address or Contact Information? ...
Probably not, right?
After all, isn't conducting business on the "Net" challenging enough without putting up additional roadblocks on your pathway(s) to success...
That is all for now, until the next time "God Bless and Good Luck on your life long endeavors!"
