*** Man Gets Prison Thousands Of Spam E-mails ***

Denver, CO -- 05/01/2008
A Colorado man accused of sending hundreds of thousands
of spam e-mails has been sentenced to 21 months in prison
after pleading guilty to tax evasion and falsifying e-mail headers.

Thirty-five-year-old Edward "Eddie" Davidson of Louisville was
also ordered to pay nearly $715,000 to the Internal Revenue
Service. He was sentenced Monday and ordered to report to
prison authorities in May.

Federal prosecutors say Davidson's operation used false e-mail
headers to disguise the sender. Prosecutors say some of the
spam was meant to dupe stock investors and manipulate markets.

Authorities say Davidson made at least $3.5
million sending e-mails for nearly 20 companies.
