I am reprinting below part of the text of a new spam making the rounds.  The spam purports to come from an "official antispam corporation" which controls all of the spam databases, and tells you that if you don't "click on the link below" to be removed from all of the spam databases,  you will not have the right to complain about spam(!).

Of course, this is a scam, designed to get you to confirm your email address (and who knows, ultimately, what else).  But it's entirely conceivable that people will be taken in by this, especially with the possibility of a "Do Not Email" database being in the news recently.

At least one version of the email has the subject line "(Username), Official N0tification", and starts out by saying:

We are an official antispam corporation and we aim to end spam by year 2005.

Your e-mail address has been determined to be included in several spam mailings. Even if you register a new e-mail address, it will shortly be overwhelmed with unsolicited mail.
We now maintain and control those junk mail databases and we are kindly asking you to remove your e-mail address from those databases by clicking the link below.

If you do not remove your e-mail address, you will NOT have the right to complain about spam in the future and your e-mail address will be treated as voluntarily participating in marketing mailings, also known as junk mail or spam."

Now you know.  Don't fall for it!
