Report to the Federal Trade Commission

The FTC wants copies of your unwanted e-mails and e-mails that have deceptive unsubscribe links. They use the unsolicited e-mails stored in their database to pursue law enforcement actions against people who send deceptive spam e-mail.

To report any unwanted e-mails you receive, simply forward the messages to spam@uce.gov. Make sure that you include the header information in the e-mail.

The FTC wants to know if you find an e-mail with an unsubscribe link that is not active, does not unsubscribe you or results in more spam. You can fill out a complaint form at www.ftc.gov/spam.
